Grace's birthday

Saturday was a whirlwind of fun. Though I love having all of the chaos of a birthday wrapped up into one day, having 2 parties in a day is overwhelming. We started at Chuck E Cheese at 10AM so Grace could celebrate with her friends and then raced back home to finish prepping at home for the family party. It was a crazy busy day, but lots of fun. Most important...Grace loved it! She chose a rainbow theme for her party this year. What I thought would be simple...a few rainbow colored decorations...soon creeped over to rainbow food as well!

Grace wanted a BBQ again this year. In typical birthday fashion, it rained. Quite fitting as you need a little rain if you're going to make rainbows! The fruit tray might have been my favorite. I love pinterest!

Rainbow cupcakes!

She has been wanting the game Twister for the longest time...very appropriate for our rainbow theme!

The rain let up just long enough for the birthday girl to take her new wheels for a spin. If you notice in the backgroud, little sister was pretty excited for Grace's new present as it meant a new bike for her as well. Love those hand-me-downs! 

She's windy enough, those candles didn't stand a chance!

Happy birthday, soon-to-be 7 year old!
