It’s a Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Kind of Party!

Yesterday was Samantha’s friend party at Busy Bees. I wasn’t sure she’d want a party there again since she has had so many, but they recently moved into a new location and that means her handprints are not on their wall so she insisted it had to be there. Everyone she invited came and it made her day.
Sam always likes a canvas party so that is what she chose. The kids all painted a cat. Sam originally wanted to paint a Mary Poppins themed canvas but after many conversations with her, she decided against it. I tried to explain to her that first of all, Busy Bees did not have a ready made design for that, and second, all her friends may not like Mary Poppins. I did promise her we would go back sometime and try to do one on our own. The girls all had a great time painting, as they usually do.
When the painting was done, it was time to party! Finding Mary Poppins party decor is not easy so I had to improvise. I made umbrella shaped cookies and in their goodie bags, each girl got a Hershey bar with a custom wrapper that I made. Sam loved the table scatter in Mary Poppins designs that was all over.
When planning the party, we discussed her cake at length. She doesn’t even eat cake and I made some offhand comment about having donuts because at least she eats those. You would have thought I said she could have a million dollars she was so excited. I told her that of course she could have donuts, she can have whatever she wants, and it totally made her day. So, presenting…her donut cake!
While the girls were eating, the disco light was going so they could dance around like maniacs after.
Time for the oh-so-important hand print!
All the little girlies. 🙂
Sam couldn’t wait to bring all her balloons home and I thought some pictures might be nice.
Hold on tight Sam, you don’t want to fly away!
Happy Birthday, Sam! I hope it was all you dreamed it would be!
