So we finally got around to having Lexi's birthday party. Andy and Isaac went camping with the scouts this weekend so we figured it was the perfect time to do it.
We had a lot of fun with the polka dot theme. We played several games by just putting some colored dots on the floor. Twister, Musical Chairs (played with POLKA MUSIC, of course!), Simon Says, and Hullabaloo kind of all meshed together.
We also decorated bags with buttons and sequins, made bracelets, decorated cupcakes and made homemade ice cream in a bag -complete with bubble gum polka dots. Some of the girls thought that was crazy, so I'm wondering...am I the only one that used to love bubble gum ice cream as a kid?!
My polka pretties :)

Cute idea Beck!

Funny thing...can't believe that I'm admitting this, but I had thought of having a polka dot party for my baby's 1st birthday. Guess I'll have to think of something else now. Good thing the baby's not even born yet. Yes...i need to get a life.
Oh no, bummble gum ice cream was the bomb when I was little! And Lori isn't so crazy--I had Cael first birthday and Halloween costume planned before he was born. That's a really cute idea for a party.
You still are my favorite mom! You have the cutest kids and ideas and you are just so cute!
What a cute theme. You're not crazy with the ice cream. I LOVED bubble gum shakes at Purple Turtle (have you been there?) when I was growing up. Now, I can't believe I used to eat that.
