Lainey Turns 6!

Ok, just typing that title made me a little sick to my stomach!  I thought her turning 5 was hard, but 6 is WAY harder!!! 

This year I wanted to keep her party "low key", but of course that did not turn out as planned!  We decided to celebrate her birthday the night before her actual one and on her birthday.  Due to our crazy schedule, we opened her presents the night before and went to her favorite place, Chick-Fil-A for dinner on her real birthday.

 

We had her party the day after.  I decided to go with a sleepover theme, but we made it pretend! :)  The girls were asked to come in their pajamas with a stuffed animal.  We invited her church friends, neighborhood friends, old daycare friends, and every girl in her class.  Never in ,my wildest dreams would I think ALL of them would show, but of course they did.  It got a little crazy at times, but we had a blast!

We, like every year, have vowed to never have another birthday party.  Until next year...
