jeneva's birthday party

We told Jeneva she could invite three friends for her 9th birthday this year.  Without hesitating she wanted Ava, Madeline, and Lydia to come.  Steve and I dropped Jude and Josie with friends and we took just the girls to the water park for the afternoon. 

We came home and had garlic bread and pizza.  This picture is kind of deceiving.  They appear to be all nice and calm and quiet.  Most of the evening was actually quite silly and noisy.

Let the sugar high begin!

Julia made these super cute cupcakes with Pez candy as the flipflops!

All smiles after only 6 hours of sleep (except poor Josie, she couldn't sleep with them)

We decorated flip flops in the evening by adding some ribbon and bows to Old Navy flips.

This was the highlight!  Brittany came in the morning and surprised Jeneva.  She did face paint on all of the girls.

Three of the girls chose matching designs.

Jude even got in on the fun! 

Seriously!  So cute!  Little Jude Knight wanted a baseball rocket.  Brittany delivered!
