The Slumber Party

Camera Roll-1534

Addie made me promise a year ago that she could have a slumber party for her 6th birthday party and that day finally arrived. And we survived it!  Addie had two friends over and yet we had about 18 people at our house Saturday night to celebrate. Addie wanted a chocolate themed party too so we celebrated with chocolate covered strawberries and chocolate ice cream sundaes. The girls also made chocolate lollipops together that they could take home as party favors.

According to a Boston co-worker's 8 year old Adelaide, the key components of a successful slumber party are pizza, a movie, popcorn and manicures. I took her advice and scored some awesome party favors for the girls. Each one (including Addie and Eliza) got matching Hello Kitty pjs, flip flops (aka spa shoes), Hello Kitty nail polish sets, a nail file and some chocolates. The girls finally crashed at 10:30 pm all curled up together in a pile of sleeping bags and glittered toenails. The next morning everyone came back over for pancakes, coffee and a bloody marys. Success!
