Our girl is 6. It doesn't seem possible that it has been 6 years since this girl joined our family.
She chose an owl theme for her party. We decorated a few days before the party so we could enjoy them. Natalie helped put them all up
For her birthday cereal Natalie chose generic Honey Bunches of Oats. That made me giggle.
On her birthday Natalie got to go on a field trip to Schnepf Farms so it was a fun-filled day for her!
She loved all of her presents--she was pretty spoiled!
For dinner she requested a few favorite things. Mac and cheese, grilled chicken, grapes and carrots and cucumbers.
The next day was her owl party!!
Freeze dance
Put the owl in the tree!
Forest animal charades!

I asked Cyrena and her friend to be helpers at the party. They were specifically in charge of the scavenger hunt---they did such a great job!
The two helpers with their goody bags. The goody bags had little stuffed owls, owl rings, homemade owl hairclips, silly putty and some piñata candy
She was a very happy birthday girl!
