Bella’s ‘Spa’ Themed 5th Birthday Party

 
I thought about breaking this post up since there are quite a few photos, but I decided to leave it as one.
Bella turned 5 on July 8th, 2010. 
Her ‘Spa’ Birthday Party was on July 10th.
Seven girls.
Make-up.
Nail polish.
Tatoos.
Pizza.
Cake and Ice Cream.
Equals Tons of Fun!

Getting ready to be pampered!

Me and my sweet friend, Mandy, working on the girls!  My mom-in-law made those cute little smocks for all the girls to wear (like at a real spa) and they also got to take them home.Photobucket * * * * * * *
I like how they were all ‘hovered’ over watching.  And I need to point out Scout – who is next to me.  The kid was fascinated with it all :o)Photobucket * * * * * * *

Bella and her friend Mckenna, after getting all dolled up!

I put this shot in to  show the glitter hairspray.  You can sort of see it in Bella’s hair.  It also works good as a body glitter.  I accidentally sprayed some on my arms and it stayed all day :o)  Looked pretty cool!

It ended up being a group effort.  Love it!

So, there you have it!  It was 2 hours of non stop fun for the girls.  They had so much fun and it was so cool to watch them!  Bella also received so many fun gifts from her friends.
I think her first ‘girls only’ party was a success!

Have you done any themed parties?

What a wonderfully fun party! I may have to steal that idea when my daughter turns 7. Just swinging by to wish you a great weekend and I wanted to invite you to join us tomorrow for our first Spotlight Saturday Blog Hop. I have a preview up right now if you want to check and see what it is all about. Hope to see you there!

Kari1 Bella's party was ADORABLE, I am sure she loved every detail. I might be asking you to do my make-up for my next big event, it is great.

I got your comment and have since added my e-mail to my profile but now I am having trouble responding to your comments. Any suggestions? They would be appreciated.

Have a great weekend!

What fun! You did a fab job with the party... I love all the details, and the girls looked so cute in their smocks!

Hmmm...let's see... Bear in the Big Blue House, Rollie Pollie Ollie, Elmo, Spongebob, Cars, Spiderman, StarWars, Pirate theme, Naruto, Starwars (revisited), Harry Potter ... I could keep going, but I think you get the idea. ;)

Have a great weekend!
