Celebrate McKenzie.

We only do parties for our kids every 4 years or so.  McKenzie's last one had to be skipped because I was on bedrest with Viviana....   So this was her first party since she was FIVE.... 
Let the celebrations begin!  And I don't do small scale and simple when it comes to celebrations.   We had a ridiculously slim budget to work with.  
Feast your eyes.  It was so much fun to plan.... 
A delicious glitter party with a 
yummy cabochon accessory project.
























They played a fun icebreaker game... there were about 20 questions written on that beach ball... they toss it, and whomever catches it has to answer the question their right thumb is sitting on.

Happy Birthday, Kenz!
