It was a weekend of parties…

"Cakes are special. Every birthday, every celebration ends with something sweet, a cake, and people remember. It's all about the memories."
-Buddy Valastro

This was a weekend of birthday parties for Ashlyn as she nears her 6th birthday.  This marked the first year that Ashlyn wanted a party at a location with her friends (instead of the house like last year) and so we invited some of her kindergarten and Montessori school friends out to Southlake Gymnastics for some fun.  The kids had a great time running around the gym and eating pizza.  After all the excitement James crashed in record time.

We didn’t have time to open presents there so we took them home to open them.  The presents were perfect for Ashlyn, we have a string of pictures of her with a shocked and surprised expression on her face.  She has a lot of thank you letters to write now.

The party with the family was a lot of fun as always.  Isla got to play with her cousin, the kids jumped on the trampoline and bounce house, and there was yet more cake to eat.  This year it was a Miles from Tomorrowland themed party.

There was also an opportunity for a space themed photo booth.  I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves on this one.
