Emma got recognized at school today for her birthday and then got to come home and get ready for her birthday party with friends!
I had the table set up with about a dozen different kinds of candies to decorate gingerbread people.
The girls showed up at 3:00 and started playing right away. In about half an hour, we started some games. I split them into two teams and had them try to make an 'Olaf'. It was quite entertaining to what them. One team just kept having the toilet paper rip. Finley definitely got it figured out and had Emma wrapped up just like a snowman.
Then we played 'Pin on Rudolph's Nose'. They took turns being blindfolded and trying to put the nose on right. They had more fun putting the noses on themselves!

We then had a game where they had to roll a '6' on the dice to get a turn to unwrap a present. Of course we made it a little tougher by making them put on a touque and gloves before they could start unwrapping!
After the games were done, they got to decorate gingerbread people. Some were very detail oriented, but most just wanted to see how much candy they could actually get on the plate! (like Emma!)
We sang happy birthday to Emma with a candle stuck into her gingerbread man and then she got to open presents!
She has such good friends and got spoiled rotten. Everyone left at 5:00 and I was glad to have a bit of a break! It's been a busy day!
