Emilia turns 5

Emilia's birthday was on the 17th of July and she requested a "My Little Pony Spa Birthday Party." This meant that she wanted to do the ponies' hair and decorate dresses for them at her party.  She decided to invite 3 of her friends and their sisters to join us.  Actually, the first person she asked to invite was Nana, so she was there, but I thought we should also invite girls her age. :)  She was very sad her cousins Jane and Meg were too far away--in Arizona--to come.  We were lucky enough to have my Aunt Jean and cousin Dot join us.  They were here visiting for a couple days, so they joined us to help and spend time with everybody.  It was a good thing we had some extra hands because things got a little crazy with 7 girls mostly under 5 trying to do pony hair and decorate pony dresses!

Here's the kitchen while the girls were getting ready to decorate dresses.

 I made pony cupcake toppers to go on her funfetti cupcakes.

Emilia loved her gifts and had a great time at her party.  Thanks to everyone who came and everyone who helped me not go crazy! :)
