Emily's 13th Birthday



A VERY MERRY UNBIRTHDAY TO YOU!

So this year my baby sister turned 13!! Yikes that means that I am getting old! So naturally I decided hey it would be so much fun for me to throw her and some friends a birthday party. well I was on the phone one day with my mom and we were talking about themes and I came across an Alice in Wonderland themed party! And of course that was the one I went with, a little back story on why. My sister just happens to be one of the most amazing dancers I know, not just saying that. Anyway in her dance company last year she was given the chance to play Alice in her jazz dance. She did such a great job! So of course we couldn't not through this party for her!



 It took me a little time but I found some great things on Pinterest (of course) and the dollar store. We had a Mad Hatter Tea Party so I served chicken salad sandwiches, mixed fruits and veggies and we had a yummy sprite and sorbet ice cream punch. The guests were asked to come in their best party dress and their maddest hat! We had a few girls in hats but the rest wore their tea party dresses. I found some fun games online, we played Tabo with words that went with Alice in Wonderland theme, we had a tea cup relay and we played a game where the girls had to go by their mad name. which was their name spelled backwards, anytime someone called the person by their real name they had to draw a card from the deck, the one who drew the queen of hearts won a prize. All in all I think they had a BLAST!









 the last part that I was pretty proud of was the Decorations and Photo Booth props Justin and I made. We really had a blast. I just have to say how much I love this sister of mine. She has been such a blessing in my life, I don't know where I would be if she wasn't around. I hope that she had the best 13th Birthday ever! Love you sissy!
