Our kids have friend birthday parties every other year and this was Sophie's year! Plus she turned 8 which is an even bigger deal:). So we decided to have a Spring Fling! Soph loves the outdoors and nature and it's Spring so we thought it worked well. She was only allowed 8 friends and it was just right.
First the girls decorated their goody bags with their name and flowers.

Then we had hidden over 200 fake plastic bugs all over the yard and we had a bug scavenger hunt! I thought the girls would be squeamish, but they loved it. We are still finding random bugs today.
The party girls!
The party girls!
Can't have a party without a pinata, those girls can hit!
We had a hula hoop contest and other outdoor games. They were good!
Present time! Sara Jayne gave her a snow cone maker. Which turned out to be the hit of the party! We ended up making snow cones for everyone.
Also a favorite still- Webkinz. Man Soph can't get enough of these things.
Chloe gave her an awesome grown up art set and canvas.

Sophie and her best-est school friend, Maddi.
Make a wish!
