Shaylee had an absolute blast at her birthday party. She loved having her friends over. We started off the party with snacks and a unicorn picture to color. The girls were all so sweet sitting around the table.
After cake we played pin the horn on the unicorn. The girls had fun with this one spinning eachother around and then pointing them in somewhat of the right direction.
Next they went on a Birthday Egg Hunt around the house - searching for Birthday Eggs :) Inside each egg was a number and a letter. According to the numbers the letters spelled a special message - HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHAYLEE. Then it was time to sing Happy Birthday - and have some cake!

Then it was time for each girl to decorate their own picture frame. I had glitter glue and stickers and markers and sparkly gems - the girls loved this and were all so creative!
A huge thank you to Kara (mom of one of Shaylee's friends) who helped me with the party and watched over Shelby :)
Finally they headed to the basement to play the Musical Dress-up game. I changed the game up a bit this time. Instead of picking an item out of a bag without looking the girls had to pick a colored piece of paper out of a basket. Then match that color with another piece of paper stapled to a bag which contained the item they should put on. The girls all dressed up...aren't they sweet!
It is hard to believe Shaylee is 6! Where did those years go? I'm so glad she has such a great bunch of friends - and she got to enjoy this special party with them!

You've inspired me to do a birthday party at home for our daughter. Her friends have had parties "on location" at different places, but I've had a blast looking up games on-line and thinking about fun stuff for them to do. It's more cost-effective, and I think they'll have even more fun.
