This year we made these cute shirts, got birthday blizzards, and had a sleepover for Noelle\u2019s little birthday party!<\/p>\n

I\u2019m usually more organized, but Easter and GWL and so much more threw me off my game!  I went to Wal-Mart the night before and got the table decorations with a few balloons added the day of the party from Party City.  Zebra is so easy to throw with another color.  I do this a lot if you haven\u2019t noticed\u2026 makes it super fun and festive!  Everything turned out super cute, and most importantly, all the girls were excited and had lots of fun enjoying everything!  <\/p>\n

First up, making shirts!  The crowns and names were both iron-ons, but it was a steep learning curve.  If I ever do this again (lol), I\u2019ll probably do all vinyl and no fabric\u2026 that was a mess, but they turned out super cute!  Brianna was adorable ironing on her name!<\/p>\n

Here are the girls after dinner going over house rules and rules for our little \u201cfield trip\u201d to Dairy Queen.  Going somewhere with Mike and me and 10 girls was a little crazy, but they did great, and it was a whole ton of fun!  These girls are great!  <\/p>\n

Emma-P and Noelle-y!<\/p>\n

To settle down before bed, we did a fun little quiz all about Noelle.  They loved it, and it made the birthday girl feel super special!<\/p>\n

After lots of snacks, a bedtime movie, silly stories, and me having to sleep on the couch to get everyone to quit giggling, we finally fell asleep!  We were on a strict bedtime schedule because the next day was Mother\u2019s Day, and I promised the girls\u2019 mommies I would have them rested.  Crazy fun!  Would I do it again?  Definitely\u2026 in a couple of years!  \"Winking<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
