Day 5

Today we had my little sister Sophia's 9th birthday party.

Her real birthday was about a month ago, but we had to celebrate a little later.

It was garden themed and the kids also swam!

It was about 92 today in Central Florida, perfect for swimming!

We planted Zinnias!

All of the kids painted, bedazzled and decorated their terra cotta planters!

They played "Pin-the-Dragonfly-on-the-Daisy!"

Each goodie "bag" was a bucket filled with a kneeler, zinnia seeds,
a mini terra cotta pot, a shovel, a hand-digger, a visor,
gardening gloves and a butterfly net!

The birthday girl Sophia and Ethan, the sweetest little brother and sister I could ask for.




The flower cupcake-cake!

Olivia and I!

(She is one of my 3 sisters!)

The finished pots!

dragonfly with her pink net!

We had a fun and exhausting day, but it was the first real birthday party Sophia has had (since her 1st which she can't remember!) and she loved every second of it. I loved taking the pictures, I had about 200! They had fun chasing Daisy and Rocco (our 2 ducks) around the backyard too!
