We decided to have a party every other year for Elle. This year we did a 'decorate your own cake party'. We played 'pin the decorations on the cake (Elle's idea!), charades, decorated cakes, had pizza and plates with presents. I stayed up until 1:00 am making 14 mini 6" round cakes and 32 cupcakes (also had cupcakes in class today). I used 3 lbs of butter, almost an entire giant size bag of powdered sugar from costco and 18 eggs. It was nuts. Even though it was crazy getting it all ready, she loved it and was thrilled with how it turned out.
I am so grateful for her fun attitude. It made the party a great time. I also love that Elle included Seraphina in everything! She could have pushed her to the side, instead she pulled up a chair for her. I have so much to learn from this sweet 6 year old.
