It's Everly's birthday and that means....Rainbow cake!!
The key to it is making two white cake mixes and dividing them each in half and making them each a different color. Red, yellow, green and blue seem to get that rainbow idea across the best. If she still wants a rainbow cake when she gets married, I'll add in orange, purple and violet. How cool would a rainbow wedding cake be?
Since we are doing a family party later and this thing is crazy tall, I decided we could freeze half of each color and just do half at each party.
I think it turned out cute!
Everly was playing at Jovee's house and so she actually was third to arrive at her own party! I had everyone keep their shoes and coats on, because we were on a mission to sing, eat cake, open presents and high tail it out of there...
Aaron Guenther, Adalyn Ranzenberger, Everly, Eden Giles, Jovee Terry and Shelton Braithwaite.
Feeling a little bashful as her friends sing to her.
All in one breath!
They each gave her a gift and couldn't wait for her to see what they had chosen. And she was so sweet when she opened each one. She would exclaim, "Oh, I really love this!" or "I've always wanted one of these! Thank you very much!"
The second the last present was opened, we ran for the car and got everyone clipped. What a cute little bunch!
And because I failed to plan properly, I realized that by the time we made it to Wonderscope, we would only have an hour to play. It went way to fast.
My favorite moment was when Everly ordered a sandwich from Aaron and he asked, "Open face?"
ha ha! How does a 5 year old know about open face sandwiches??
We high tailed it out of there and made it home on time, but we easily could have spent another hour or two playing in each room.
Luckily, they were happy with their birthday adventures and were all smiles as we sang to our Pandora Disney station on the way home. The last "friend party" is complete! Every other birthday in 2018 will be a nice family dinner. Ahhh.....
I love you Everly! Happy 5th Birthday!
