Summer Birthday Parties!

Two of my closest friends, Jenn and Stefanie, have daughters with summer birthdays. Stef's daughter Allie was born 8/26/09 and Jenn's daughter Emily was born 7/12/10....so this summer brought Emily's 2nd Birthday and Allie's 3rd birthday! I never blogged about Emily's bday last month, so I thought I'd combine pictures from both. Both of these birthday girls are as sweet and adorable as they can be!

On Saturday August 25th, we went to Allie's third birthday party at Mason's School of Music. It was such a perfect place for a party for a little one turning 3! You can choose between a music or dance theme, and Stefanie chose dance, but really we got to do both. :) The party started upstairs where the music room was open for the kids to play with all sorts of musical instruments and another room was set up for making princess crowns and crepe paper twirlers. Then, we went down stairs for a dance party! They lady who led it was great...and there were hula hoops, parachutes, colored scarves, and all sorts of stuff for the kids to play with. Allie was a perfect birthday princess!

Allie is just too, too cute!!

Stef did a great job with the goodies and disney dance mix cds!

Amelia is seriously cute! And she wore her crown so well!

Lily's first hula hoop experience.

Lily started pushing her hula hoop around like her toy vacuum, it was pretty funny!

Allie is such a sweet sharer! Lily wouldnt wear her princess crown, but it made a good balloon weight!

Thanks for a great party, Stef! :) Defintiely going to consider having Lily's party here when she turns 3 or 4!

And here are pictures from Emily's party....all taken by our friend Krysten, who takes such beautiful pictures! This was Saturday, July 10th at Tom Brown Park by the lake. Also a great spot for a party! The Hill family moved up to north Georgia in May, so it was so great to see them again!! I miss them so much! Jenn did such a good job with the Sesame Street theme... and what kid doesnt love Elmo??

Ready for the fun!

 A cute way to do favors!

Lily and Amelia are 3.5 months apart, they always play together well. (Ignore my awful roots!)

 Thanks for a great party, Jenn! Happy 2nd Birthday to Ms. Emily Grace!
