Shira's Butterfly Party

I'm a little late on this post, but whatever. We had Shira's party a week after her birthday, since it fell on Father's Day this year, and it was her first 'friend' party. Let's just say that we have decided to have these types of parties only on milestone birthdays...meaning at 8, 12, and 16. It was a lot of fun, but too much work and money, and I was even being frugal! She loved it, so it was all worth it. She chose to have a butterfly party this year, so we made butterfly wands, butterfly white chocolate suckers, decorated cookies since it was raining and we couldn't jump on the new trampoline, and had a butterfly pinata, cake, balloons, and so on. She had eight little friends show up (10 in all including Shira and Asher!) and they laughed, played games, and danced for several hours. Happy 6th Birthday Shira!

I forgot to take a picture of the cute pinata, so I cropped this one out of the background of another picture. :-)
Here is the butterfly cake.
Here they are playing duck, duck, goose. Asher is loving being the only boy.
About to cut the cake!
