Fashion Barbie Birthday Party - Reese's 6th B-day

Well, my baby girl is SIX years old now! I can hardly believe it. Gone are the ways of My Little Pony and Barbie is in full force. Reese wanted a Barbie birthday party and she got her wish. We went easy with the cake and just did cupcakes.






Reese chose the theme, games, cake and helped shop for what she wanted for gift bags and decor for her party. It was all her. The girls played "Hot Pony". This was a big hit. We may have played about 30 rounds!

Finley and Chelsea were there.

Bean was there!

That's about how I felt with 11 girls in my home. At least they weren't boys!



We played pin the fashion sunglasses on Barbie. Christopher whipped up a drawing of Barbie (within a few minutes...does his talent ever end?).

Reese and I made a Fashionista Barbie (Reese's favorite barbies at the moment) matching game. It turned out to be really fun AND they got to take one home.

Not sure what Finley's take was on the game.


Another game was the "guess which piece of the Barbie outfit is missing" game. They had to guess what was missing and describe what the article looked like.


The girls got to fashion their own pair of sunglasses to take home.




Once it was time to sing Happy Birthday, Christopher lead the girls in a Happy Birthday Cha, Cha, Cha line dance.

Then it was time for cake and more singing!


Happy Birthday to Reese!

Girl parties are so different than boy parties. These girls just sat around and talked and gossiped like it was a tea party whereas boys would have been making bodily noises, screaming and running and climbing over things. These girls were super cute. And Reese was the perfect hostess.


Present time!







After presents it was time for party blow outs while we waited for parents to come.




Christopher thought that he could take a nap after the party....Finley had other plans.
