It's A Tea Party for Ame

The TEA PARTY started with the kids

(the girls were really the only interested ones)

decorating their own tea cups

with puffy paint and jewels.

Then we all enjoyed lots of FINGER FOOD-

mini corn dogs, pizza bites, mini sandwiches,

veggies/dip, chips/dip and

a delicious sherbet/sprite punch.

Thanks to all who helped with the food!!

Then it was on to the Pinata.

Here is QUinn behind the scenes-

not only was I scared about him plumiting

to his death off of here, but also that

one of the kids was going to take a grand swing

and put a nice big whole in the wall.

(thank goodness neither happened)

Birthday girl got the first swing

then all of the kids, including Ash got to take a few swings

I believe it was cousin Ryan who was the slugger
to take the pinata down.
Way to go Ry Guy!!

Ame was thoroughly spoiled with lots of gifts-

(just to name a few)

CUTE clothes

a remote control car, that she even gets to

color and decorate herself!

an MP3 player

thanks to everyone else for their generous

gifts-grandma frankie for UNO ATTACK

and gma &gpa Asplund for the $$$$.

I am sure Ame will spent it very

thoughtfully and wisely!!
*********************

And last but not least it was time for

dessert/singing time.

We had cupcakes and brownies.

Ame got her own mini cake.

We were soo grateful to all who came to celebrate

and spend time with our girl! She didn't know what kind

of party she was getting, but she said it was better than

she had hoped for. Good thing cuz this mom put a lot

of thought, time and energy into this one!

AND mom was exhausted after it was all over :)

We love you Ame and are so proud of the

smart, mature, strong, beautiful girl you are!!!

And this is the end to bday celebrations for this

girl-until next year!
