Mia's bday party was so fun and I was so lucky to have my mom, brother, sis in law, and cousin in town to help out. Mia had a joint party with her dad and her Aunt Cheryl at our neighborhood clubhouse. We were so excited to have the Gardners come down from VA and celebrate with us. Mia had a Dora Adventure party. First the kids decorated backpacks, then Swiper stole the goody bags so we had to go on an adventure to find them. I played songs from the Dora soundtrack that went with each stop in our adventure. First the kids went to the star room and had to gather as many Explorer stars as they could and put them in their backpack. Next they went to the Fairy Kingdom and had to pop all the bubbles that were taking over! My amazing sis in law, Lindsay dressed up as the Fairy Queen for me. Finally the kids had to go down to the playground and the Grumpy Old Troll (played by my amazing lil brother!) was there and did a lovely song and dance and told the kids if they wanted their goody bags they had to give him all their Explorer stars. So the kids had to cross the bridge and get their goody bags. The looks on their faces was hilarious because my brother had these furry eyebrows and mustache on his face. Then we ate BBQ and had cake and ice cream! It was a great party and Mia and her friends had a blast.
