Lexy's 8th Birthday Party

Oh boy did we ever have a Birthday Party...!!!

I picked up the kids right after school so that we could finish getting ready for Lexy's Birthday Party on Friday afternoon. I was a little bit worried about the early start time, 3:30pm on a Friday. But we had a great turn out. I grabbed some pink, sparkle, spray-in hair dye for Lexy. She LOVED it...!! My, my it is soooo PINK...!!! I posted a version of this cake that we had on her birthday. But this is the one that we had at the party. Nice and small, it was all gone by the end of the party. Huh, Helper C...???

Look at all the people that came to Lexy's party. There were two more that showed up late. Being such an early time of day and the 'off season', there were only 2 or 3 other skaters one the ice the whole time. So, we kept control of the music and such. Fun time for the kids.

Here is a little cake time, just before they all sang to her. Look and that cake a blaze... We played two games in addition to skating. Pin the Stuff on Lexy and a version of hot potato with a Stink-eez. The Pin the Stuff on Lexy was fun. We had skates, hair bows, a crown, ear rings, a necklace. It was pretty fun, and she just happened to pick the skating dress to wear to the party that was the same as the poster I had printed for the game.
After the party we went to a pho-Mexican place for dinner. It was pretty much a goodbye to the Barker's dinner with the Payne's. The kids all had so much fun. I'm pretty sure the adults enjoyed the visit as well. I know that I did. Still kind of sad that the Barker's bailed on us. They had all lined up the restaurant up to sing Happy Birthday in Lexy in Mexican. They brought out this giant sombrero and two fried ice creams. At the end of the song one of the guys picked up the treat and held it in front of Lexy, she thought it was to try the treat... Nope, they pushed in in her face... Hahaha...!!! Just a little, it was so fun, she loved it. She talked and talked about how fun that was. Turned out to be a fantastic evening. Thank you so much for all the help, Helper C, Butch, Zoey, Jess, Andrew, Cam, Jen, and all the others that helped me pull this off. Thanks to all the parents that brought your kids. You all helped me make a WONDERFUL memory for my little Princess.
