Kendyl's 7th Birthday

Months before Kendyl's birthday we started discussing party options and decided on roller skating.  As the date got closer and the time to schedule it arrived, I brought it up again.  To my surprise Kendyl no longer wanted a school party and adamantly asked me to stop asking her about it.  She insisted she simply wanted a party with her family and her friends she had known a LONG time.  So, we changed routes and planned a party at the house with family, neighbors, and the Moore's (of course).  As the date got closer and the invitations for class parties poured in, I think she regretted her decision.  I felt bad, but I tried t throw her a party and that boat had sailed.  I think she still had a good time with her peace themed fiesta.

Mindi helped me make awesome party favor t-shirts and I found adorable peace sign gift bags

We ordered a tie-dyed peace themed cake

We had a scavenger hunt type activity that the kids lost interest in pretty quick (that took us ages to plan and coordinate), but I think they still had fun.  Overall it was a fun party and I think the birthday girl felt special and celebrated and that was the main objective.

Rob, Kendyl & I ended the night with a toast to her 7th year:-) 
It's so hard to believe our baby is already 7!!
