Kirstyn’s Birthday Party

Happy Birthday Kirstyn (yesterday)!!!  Big 13!  🙂  We opened presents, ate a great dinner in her honor, and had baked custard (instead of cake) which is one of Kirstyn’s favorites!

Tonight Kirstyn had a birthday party with a bunch of friends from school and church.  They had a great time eating a bunch of food from a nacho bar, playing games and enjoying one another’s company.  The party theme was a Mexican Fiesta.  The basement was all decorated accordingly and the kids had a great time!

Brittany made some really cute cupcakes for the group that looked very festive (see above).  She was vary proud of them.  🙂   The kids ate these cupcakes with vanilla ice cream or rainbow sherbet and then Angela pulled out the pinata!  They had fun doing that as well.  Kirstyn then opened her presents and had to give each and every one there a thank you hug after opening each gift.  We took a group picture before people started leaving and then they all sat around for the rest of the time playing games and having fun.

As people would leave, their parting gift was a Mexican soda with a paper flower attached to it.  Angela came up with the cool idea and the girls loved it.

After everyone was gone, Kirstyn spent a ton of time cleaning up the basement (a promise she had made in order to have the party).  🙂  She really had a bunch of fun tonight and we’re glad that all her friends could come!  Happy #13 Kirstyn!
