Friday was Katie's 5th Birthday. Like so many of you, I can't quite believe that we are there already (as with a whole lot of other things). Yesterday we had an ice cream social for her party. We also had beautiful weather for it as well, high 20's. This was great since we were able to take things outside. I did cringe a little though when I came outside and there are all the little girls in their fancy dresses, playing in the dirt under our upper deck! Ahhh... at least it was dry. Looking back I realize that almost all the outdoor pictures have the lovely dirt backdrop to them. Oh, well. Thanks to everyone for all the great gifts, every gift she recieved was met with, "this is my favourite, it is just what I wanted!" and she meant it.
To give due credit where deserved, I got all my ideas from other blogs. If you ever want to do an Ice Cream Social, I got the free downloads for the printable invites, food labels and other printables from karaspartyideas.blogspot.com and the mini banana splits from livinglocurto.com. My only warning with an ice cream social is that you really can't leave a lot out to snack on. It is a bring the food out and eat...now! event.
