We had a very relaxing time at Katie's birthday party last Saturday.
Here's why:
we played games that took no time to put together
here the kids are having a crabwalk race
there was no theme--I usually stress myself out with a theme
the party cost a total of around $30
we spent some of the time eating hotdogs (such a great time filler)
the house was clean before and after the party
the presents were simple and useful and gratefully there weren't very many
the person who won each game picked a present (from the $1 section at Target) for someone else to unwrap. everyone got a present.
the birthday treat was so fast and easy to make ahead of time
party guests were very polite and calm. not pictured here are cousin Jack and my boys
party favors were simple and took very little time to put together--I also picked these up at the $1 section of target
The girls all left happy!
It was our first but hopefully not last stress-free party.

that's funny. i've never thought of a stressful birthday. mostly all the birthdays at my place are boring. that's what happens when you're old.
Jamie- you always know the best games to play!! That was always the highlight of the fun nights at YW when we got to play on of the many, many games that you know! I am glad that Katie had a nice party! Oh and I just love her list! What nice things she put on it!
