Kate's 6th Birthday Party!

We celebrated Kate's birthday a little early this year (on the 12th) with a party at the Cake Shop.  This was such a fun idea and all the girls had a great time.  Kate couldn't decide between an art party and a cupcake party but she finally made up her mind to have her party at the Cake Shop this year.
 
This location worked great for me because the budget deadline was moved up by a month this year  (Sept 15th instead of Oct 15th) which meant I needed something easy. That's exactly what the Cake Shop was!  I didn't do a single thing except pay and make aprons (see Labor Day post). We had never attended a party there before but I highly recommend it!  They did the invitations, provided the party favors, activities, refreshments, birthday cake and even took pictures! Wow.  Kate had a wonderful time and is still talking about it. 
 
 


 Let the celebration begin!





 The event coordinator had the back room decorated so nicely!



 

 Icing and Toppings!
 
As each friend arrived, I took of picture of them with Kate.  The only one I missed was Noelle (only because she was a little late and I got distracted).
 Kate and Kendal (church friend)
 Kate and Audrey
 Sterling and Kate
 Kate and Caiome (a new friend at Roberts and Ms. Hughes' daughter)
 Kate and Kailin (daycare friend)
 Izzy and Kate
 Kate and Stella (new friend at Roberts)
 Kate and Peyton (not thrilled about taking a picture - haha)
Kate and Ellianna (new friend at Roberts)
 
The first thing each guest did was decorate their take home box for all their goodies.
 During the party, the girls were given four cupcakes (two chocolate and two vanilla) and two sugar cookies to decorate.  It was hard work but someone had to do it!

After all the goodies were decorated, it was time for the birthday girl to open gifts!
 


Last but not least, it was finally cake time.  Yummy! 

 
 And no party is ever complete without a group picture! :)
Adorable.
 Silly.

Saturday night was Sterling's gymnastic party.  I joked around that the girls were getting all sugared up that morning so they could burn it off that night.  It worked out great!  Kate's friend from daycare, Quinn, was unable to make it to Kate's party that morning but luckily she was able to come to Sterling's that night so they still got to catch up. They hadn't seen each other since May at VPK graduation.

We had a busy day full of celebrations!
