SURPRISE!!!

So what did you do on New Year's Eve? I bet you didn't have ten 9 & 10 year olds over for a slumber party!!! Well we did! It was Kelsey's 10th birthday on Monday and I pulled off a surprise birthday party for her with ten of her friends! And boy...was she ever surprised, she had no idea! It was a lot of fun. I was worried I didn't know what I was doing as I really did not know or remember for that matter what would entertain 10 girls from 3 in the afternoon until 10 the next morning! I think I hit the nail on the head! A little singing and dancing, some pizza and ice cream and a good movie seemed to fit the age just right! We played a little capture the flag outside to release some energy as we were all going to stay up until midnight to welcome in the New Year! We all made it! I can hardly believe that my baby is ten already...she is such an amazing girl, I tell you God has blessed me with such a wonderful, caring, sensitive, smart, loving, affectionate, and beautiful young lady!! I couldn't be more proud of her and I love her with all my heart! So here's a recap of the night....I took way too many pictures....this isn't even 3/4 's of them...well anyways...ENJOY!!
