Mia's 5th Birthday Party

 Mia's 5th birthday was a lot of fun (as well as crazy, stressful and insane). She wanted a Rapunzel theme. We braided a giant golden braid out of yellow yarn and put that on the front door. When the kids arrived we decorated crowns. I was worried about the boys doing this activity but they totally got in to it!

Mia, Presley, Kamber, Liah, Arie, Taylor, Alyssa...getting in line for the Piñata bashing...

After we made crowns, we went outside and painted (I have NO IDEA what I was thinking!!!) Rod got them all dressed in garbage bags and we gave each kid a plate of paints and a paintbrush then set them free outside. They each had a sheet of paper either hanging on the wall or on the ground. Some of the kids got super creative. Tiffany spent a long time on hers and it was amazing!!! (see below) The kids had pizza and cake and ice cream. Then we opened presents. Mia got a bunch of cute things, including lots of Rapunzel presents, which she loved!

The kids pretty much all looked like this by the end :)
