Maddy is our animal lover, so she requested a safari cake this year. We typically do "family birthdays" besides pivotal years such as 5,10,13,16 years old. She was turning 10 so we pulled off her Birthday party the Thursday after her actual Birthday. She had some kids from school join the fun and neighbors/friends came by throughout the evening. We had a blast at the party as the parents, friends and party goers joined in on the games. The evening went very fast and we didn't have enough time to play all the "minute to win it" games we had planned.
Who knew you could use plastic cups for so many games that the kids would eagerly wait to play!
Cup stacking was a hit!
another game...
and another cup game!
Putting cut out cereal boxes together
The party didn't stop until well after dark.
We had a fun celebration for Maddy, she ended the evening saying..."THAT was the best birthday party ever" We are blessed beyond words that the Lord entrusted her to us. She cares deeply for others, she is compassionate, caring, quick to serve, outgoing, teachable, friendly, energetic, loves adventure and she is spontaneous, gifted in music/singing, enjoys deep conversations, innovative, independent....I could go on.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
Psalm 139:14
