We were blessed with no rain on Saturday morning despite a dismal forecast for the weekend and Dagny got to have her backyard birthday party with all her little friends!
We had a soapy water and sponge car wash.
The big blow up pool was hit with the bigger kiddos but Dagny took a couple trips in and out.
I made some homemade bubble solution (dish soap, water and glycerine) and had a bunch of fun bubble wands.
The structure was fun for all and Dagny shared her beloved swings much better than I anticipated!
Here is Dagny with her long lost twin sister, Sadie. Sadie's a year old and a preschool buddy and the fact that they both wore pink coverups over their bathing suits to the party was hysterical.
And our sandbox got some excellent raking, digging, and dumping time.
Before we knew it, it was pink cupcake time!
Can you feel her excitement?
Happy Birthday to you, Dagny!
She blew out her candles with some assistance from me and couldn't have been more thrilled!
The cupcakes were pink inside and out and the reviews from the crowd were quite positive :)
The kids played more after the cupcakes and eventually the play moved to the driveway where Dan played basketball with everyone (big and small) and then after most guests had left, Finley, Dagny and her friend, Himika, "played" baseball. It was terribly unsporty but awesome to watch!
All in all, a great party as it low key and no hassles and resulted in a perfectly satisfied birthday girl! Her real birthday will be here soon enough and she'll be, gulp, 3!
