baking party


i was able to squeeze one more year of combining a birthday party for kinsley and hallie.   considering there was 9 girls with a slight age difference i am still marveling at how smoothly it went.  

it was super simple.  the girls rotated through different stations/games centered around the baking theme.



everyone made personal pizzas (look below to see the original version of kinsley and hallie's aprons)



the girls decorated cake boxes....i love the different decorating techniques between hallie's friend and kinsley's friend.  

each girl also got to decorate her own cake.  this was adorable.  




kins and her good friend maya eating their pizzas.  

caroline LOVES the camera.  this is how she smiles anytime i am about to take a picture of her.   

there is one reason this party was efficient.  there is one reason i could manage the kids and not worry about the pizza prep, cake prep, pouring drinks, and cleaning messes and more messes.  there is one reason i could enjoy snapping pictures of the kids during the party.  there is one reason i had the time to  love on kinsley and hallie during their party.   thank you, jane, for all the behind the scenes work you did.  i am beyond grateful for you.
