Shayna's B-day party!

Shayna's party was a success! It was a lot of work and I am so glad it's over. I told the kids that we are only having friend party's every other year. By the time I purchased all of the decorations and gift bags for the kids I could have bought Shay a pretty sweet gift. I would much rather spend that money on her. I'm looking forward to next year! The theme for the party was Under the Sea. I got the idea off of Family Fun. Once I started searching under the sea party's on the Internet I came across so many fun ideas. Here is the cake that Tyler and I made. He cut the cake into the fish shape and put the necco wafers on for me. I did the frosting. We make a good team don't we?

Here is the entrance to the basement.

The basement decor.

The balloons are meant to represent bubbles....

I had this sign personalized for her. She LOVED it!

What a cute girl!

More of the decor....We served Swedish fish, gummy worms, gummy sharks and gold fish crackers.

We put some sea creatures in the bathtub.

We played musical fish...sort of like musical chairs. Little mermaid's under the sea was the song we used.

Then we played pin the fin on the fish

This is where all the fins ended up. It was hilarious.

After gifts we went upstairs for cake and ice cream. I didn't get any pictures because I recorded it. I didn't even think to take pictures....duh!

Then we headed out for the pinata. Earlier that day it had rained and the day before we had our yard aerated so it was pretty muddy. We ended up having to do the pinata in the garage but it worked out well.

It was a great party and Shayna had a ton of fun. Did I mention I'm glad it's over?

After the party we headed over to my parents house for dinner. Thanks for feeding us all Mom and Dad we sure appreciate you!
