We went shopping together before our New York trip to plan for her party. Lily stumbled across an EMOJI party pack & she was hooked. So emojis it was... it turned out really cute.
On the day before her birthday, we ran out to Party City to complete her party favors & treat bags--- maybe her favorite part of her birthday.
Birthday Decorations in place...
I found this felt banner and party balloon in the Target dollar bin maybe around New Years and knew it had her name written all over it. Mike ran out after bedtime to pick up this emoji balloon.
Peter loves to draw so his contribution is that he colored and cut out 8 emoji faces for her and put them all around the house. She had to find them on the morning of her birthday- so sweet.
Aunt Becky sent Lily some popsicle molds & recipe book. The perfect gift for her, as she loves sweets, loves concocting things, and is alllllways hungry.
Goo & Pop gave her a big Lego Friends set. This was also a perfect gift because she and Peter could bond over it (hard to come by these days) and she needed to ask him for a little help. Then they could pretend together- and oh, blessed self forgetfulness.
It has lots of bags so lots of building.
The day after her birthday, for her "party", I took her and three friends to paint pottery.
Afterwards, we hit up the Sonic drive thru (our favorite this summer) for Slushes.
All of them got blue raspberry with pop rocks- I loved that they all agreed and got the same thing.
Back at home, Maw had arrived with Lily's lemon flavored emoji cake. It was so cute and delicious!
Pizza first...
then eight bright candles!
