Brooklyn's 6th Birthday party began the night before as they often do...
Her ACTUAL birthday had already taken place and she had gotten this fancy pedicure set so we decided to make her toes beautiful for the party.
And by "we", of course I mean Mimi...I'm the queen of delegation on these big party weekends. =)
Brooklyn had just finished up her last day of VBS and was looking Super-cute in her Purple Power VBS shirt.
Both sets of Grandparents were in town as well as her Aunt Brooke and other Nalley cousins so they got in a little snuggle/movie time before bed.
Mimi and Gibson also squeezed in a little bit of snuggle time before bed!
The next morning, B put on her new "Frozen" swimsuit, "Frozen" flip flops and "Fozen-colored" cover-up to head off to swim team practice before her party.
Here was the set-up for the party!
And another picture that includes the thrown of honor for Princess Brooklyn.
Her seat was adorned with her very own personalized "Frozen" beach towel.
My awesome friend owns an ETSY shop and made this amazing banner...wish I'd gotten clearer pictures of it because it was spectacular!!
Check out this awesome "Do you want to build a snowman" sign that Mimi made for our snacks!
Dad was in charge of manning the drink station and labeling everyone's water bottles.
He nailed it!
B rocked her new Sophia the First goggles Aunt Ashley and the Giblets gave her on her ACTUAL birthday!
Many of her sweet friends personally picked out the gifts they gave her this year and they did so perfect! So many amazing little friends!
And so fun that cousin Henry could be here this year! They are only 4 days apart in age and are best of friends, but haven't gotten to spend much time together because he's lived in Tamp since they were 1. He just moved to Texas, though, so this made her party so special!
We didn't totally plan out the car ride situation ahead of time so Mimi kind-of ended up with the short end of the stick here. She got situated underneath all of the party decor and between the kids carseats on the way home. This pic does not do the comical situation justice at all. She's just a good sport. That's all I'm saying.
After the party, the littles all napped and these big kids stayed up to play with some of B's new toys.
pretty sweet...
After dinner, all the kids got cleaned up for 1 more round of gift opening from Gigie and Big Bird.
And their gifts were total hits as usual!
Then they ended the day just as they did the night before!
Exhausted and snuggled up in front of the TV.
Perfect Party Day!
(And I must mention that the club was awesome and blasted the "Frozen" soundtrack over the poolside speakers throughout her party. I'm sure the non-party patrons were loving that! =))
I am so glad I decided to pop over to your blog tonight and catch up on your precious family! The party was beautiful. Loved it! I can't believe she is 6. It's just nuts!
