Both Liberty and Cade have a birthday in July. This year they both had a “friend” party which equals lots of work for mom. I’m pretty sure they were both happy with the results, though.
Liberty Turns 6!
The Cake
This cake was the most difficult of any I’ve made. But I have been waiting since my 9th birthday party, when my mother made ME a castle cake, to make one for my little girl.
Totally worth all the work! And a shout out to Aunt Alli for moral support.
The Friends
Admittedly, going to all that work for only three little girls is a tad crazy, but when you are homeschooled, live on a cul-de-sac full of boys, and have a birthday during the busiest summer month, you don’t have many options.
The Craft
The Pinata
It seemed rather in-congruent to have three dainty little girls trying to beat up a frilly pink castle, but she has watched her brothers do it for years and she really wanted a pinata.
The Gifts
Liberty got these from one of her grandmas and she played with them for a week straight.
An Apron for Liberty
And just in case you thought her smile could not get any bigger….
We were worried a 20 incher would be too big for her and it was really, but she was a trooper and kept at it till she could start and stop on her own. Now we just have to cross our fingers that it lasts her.
Glad you came to live at our house, Baby Girl!
