This year Tatti wanted a sleepover party. So, 16 girls later... Here we go! First up is all the decorations and party favors.
I love planning and decorating for parties. I think it's so much fun!!! A party planner would be an awesome job. But, for now I'll settle for Tatti's birthday once a year.
Gammie made Tatti's birthday cake. Her sister helped her and it was AMAZING!! there were so many adorable details.
I set the table to look like a bed: complete with a pillow, stuffed animal and bedtime story!
What sleepover would be complete without some spa time? Foot soaks, face maks, glitter tattoos and a nailpolish spin the bottle.
It was time for delicious cake and then presents.
After spa time; it was game time. We played a marshmallow race- you use a straw to suck mini marshmallows from one bucket into another. The kids loved it! We made it into a relay race. We also played Don't Eat Pete. This is a favorite of kiddos all around. You place some sort of candy on each character on the board. One child leaves the room and the other kids pick 1 secret character. The child comes back in and starts to eat the pieces of candy one by one. When they try to eat the one you chose to be Pete- you yell " Don't Eat Pete!" And what girls sleepover is complete without old school MASH!!!
Popcorn and a movie was next on the list. The girls watched Aliens in the Attic- it's one of Tatti's favorites. Cracks her up every time.
The
next morning after no plenty of sleep breakfast was ready. But, to get to breakfast you had to maneuver through a maze.
Tatti's 8th birthday was a success! Do you like to plan birthdays or keep it more low key? Let us know in the comment section below.
