For Alyssa's 11th birthday party we had a survivor party. We had a bunch of girls who were braver and tougher than I thought. She had a blast and hopefully all her friends did too. Although 1 friend did cry when we had the bizarre food contest, oops.
We ate real food (pizza) and lots of gross food too, like kitty litter box treats, gummy worms, scorpion eggs (soy nuts), chocolate covered beetles (raisins) and the best, SARDINES! 4 girls actually ate the sardines and cute little Shaye actually liked them. CRAZY.
We had 2 teams and lots of games for the competition. The teams wore either yellow or turquoise bandanas. The teams were the Super Stars vs. the Blue Sharks. They each made a poster for their teams and we kept score. Each time a team won they would get beads to put on their immunity necklace (the losers got 1/2 the amount of beads). By the end all the kids had lots of beads for the necklaces. They turned out cute!
One of the favorite games was finding the gum ball under the whipped cream. I put 1 gumball and about 8 whoppers on a plate and covered them with whipped cream. The first kid to find the gum ball and blow a bubble won! Alyssa really went for it! (She came in 3rd).
We had a survivor island birthday cake for all those who outwitted, outlasted and outplayed.
Here is the welcome sign for Alyssa's birthday bash. We all survived the survivor party!
Jordan's birthday was next. She turned 8, how is my little girl so big? She had an "UP" party. We invited a bunch of friends to see the movie, then came back to the house for cake, ice cream and presents. Fun and easy = my kind of party :)
Each kid picked a balloon to take home and we had bags of treats at the movies. I think we had plenty of sugar for the day.
