Clara's 5th Birthday

Clara was anxiously awaiting her fifth birthday, counting down the days. She had chosen a rainbow theme for her party which was pretty fun.

Dana and I surprised her at school last Friday during their treats. Brynn was able to join as well.

Clara and her school buddies...and Brynn. :-)

She wanted to bring cupcakes for her birthday treat. Luckily I happened to find rainbow and unicorn ones at the store.

Clara wanted to go out to her fav restaurant for her birthday dinner. It was goood!

Auntie came to stay the night before the party and the girls were pretty excited to spend some extra time with her.

We had been saving our Scoopy Token coupons for a long time which scored the girls a kickball! They aired it up in the back for them and everything. Pretty awesome.

Cake done!

Our sweet birthday girl!

 She was such a riot when she was blowing out her candles.

We had to go full-blown rainbow and do the cake rainbow as well.

Clara's birthday was the first pinata we've ever had. It worked out really well to set it up out in the back garage. 

Ben had a lot of success unleashing the candy.

The girls' faces. Haha.

A couple attempts at a pic of all the kids.

We lost Clara on this one. :-/

Clara's friend (my BFF's daughter), Adria, was able to stay and play for a while once the party died down a bit. They had a fun time 'camping' with Clara's new set from uncle John and auntie Christel.

After we cleaned up from the party, we decided to go out for pasta at Carinos. 

Clara received make-your-own stickers from Adria and was totally into it. So fun.

Thank you to everyone who wished Clara a happy birthday and to those who were able to come celebrate with her. She told me the morning of her birthday that she still felt four, but now I think she's full-on feelin' five. :-) We love you, Fluffy Muffy.
