Party Time

Today was Alice and Claire's 5th birthday. Since we have no family around to celebrate the girl's special day we did our first friend birthday. The day started good with the girls enjoying an Anderson Family tradition, birthday cereal!

We then quickly moved to opening presents.

We went with a superhero theme and asked the kids to come dressed up if they wanted. We ended up with 12 kids total, some kids from church and a couple of kids from a girl in Marc's program.

Alice's favorite part of the party was making superhero masks

Claire's favorite party games, shooting webs at Spiderman

We finished off the day at Taylor Grocery, a southern restaurant that has live music. The girls love this place because they get to dance.

According to Claire "This was the best birthday EVER!"

Child directed crafting

We are doing preschool at home this year. One of the girls favorite things to do is make crafts and they constantly bug me about it. Today we made paper purses, nothing special.

What was hilarious to me was that they took all of the scraps from the purses and made robots. They were interested in the purses for about 5 minutes, they made robots all morning.
