Ya Ya's birthday is actually Monday, July 7 but we celebrated it yesterday instead. Thankfully, my parents offered their house & yard for the party. She had so much fun. 6 other kids came plus their parents. We had a BBQ, water balloons, swimming and bubbles. It was an ice cream cone theme from the handmade invitations down to the cake & party favors. The cake was 20 cupcakes made to look like ice cream cones. My mom baked the cupcakes & we decorated them & put them in the cones. My dad cut & painted a board into the shape of a giant ice cream cone. Then, he cut holes in it to hold the cones upright until the kids were ready to sing Happy Birthday & eat. We left the sprinkles off so the kids could decorate them just before they ate them. They had a blast. I think more candy sprinkles went into their mouths than on the actual cupcake/cones but it was fun either way. Even the party favors were shaped like ice cream cones. To our happy surprise, the ice cream cone bubbles smelled like strawberry, chocolate & mint. Ya Ya had so much fun with her little friends & all the festivities. She couldn't believe her friends from the Little Gym & park were all in one place & for her. YEAH!!! Happy Birthday YA YA!!!
