Rainbow Birthday Bash!

Since the the girls' birthdays are a week apart we decided to have a joint birthday party. Abigale got to invite 5 friends and Lydia invited 3. We decided to do a rainbow theme because it is cute and something they could both agree on. It was fun to decorate the house in such bright colors especially since it snowed and was so gloomy outside. Like any party it was a lot of work but also a lot of fun and so worth it. I love my birthday girls!
The decorations: Abigale was able to help quite a bit. She colored rainbows all day and hung them over the house. I gave her a special wall to decorate- maybe you can tell which wall :) Some of the activities- When the girls first got to the house, they decorated their gift bags which had a picture of a rainbow for them to color. They earned prizes throughout the day and used the gift bags to store everything. We then played pin the crown on Ariel because Abigale really wanted Ariel at her party. We also played a few circle games having to do with rainbows of course!


We then took a break and ate some food! We had rainbow jell-o, rainbow cookies, rainbow marshmellow pops, rainbow goldfish crackers, etc. Next it was time for the pinata. The store was out of rainbow pinatas so we got the next best thing- a unicorn! The girls loved hitting it and loved the candy even more! Time for presents (its funny because this is what all of the kids were most excited for): They got some great stuff! Thank you everyone! Time for cakeThey were a little excited!








It took awhile to light all the candles! Of course it had to be a rainbow cake! So fun and worth work!
It was such a great day! Thank you to everyone for coming and for those that helped!
