Ballerina Party

I mentioned before that Isabel had two birthday parties. One was rainbow theme with the grandparents & her brothers. The other was what she talked about wanting for months - an all girl ballerina party.  No boys allowed!

There was the getting ready which involved lots of pink and a splash of orange, because we all know Isabel's favorite food is Cheetos.

And some creative hanging skills.  That's plastic tablecloths cut in half.  I believe figuring out how to attach the balloons to the ceiling fan was the hardest part.

Waiting the arrival of the entertainment of the party.

If you know me, then you know there is a craft involved.  The making of their own ballerina.

The highlight of the ballerina party - the real ballerina!

They got to learn how she ties her shoes.

 

 Then dance with her

Isabel loves to watch Angelina Ballerina, so the ballerina read the book, Angelina Birthday.

  Then it was time to sing & blow out candles.

To have some free time fun, I made bubble wands out of pipe cleaner (which worked great) and the girls had their own cup of bubbles to blow.

Attach some crepe paper to a dowel rod and tada you have dance twirly sticks.

After the girls spent some time dancing and playing and the gifts were open it was time for everyone to head home.  As everyone walked out the door they got their ballerina and a marshmallow pop as a thank you for coming and celebrating Isabel's 5th birthday.

This little girl couldn't have been happier.

 Big thank you goes to Mrs. Paula for letting us party at her house and my sister who is the best at helping me plan and pull these parties together!  Thanks ladies!
