Pink Poodles

Olivia and Katelyn are having their first "real" birthday party this year. By "real" I mean that we sent out invitations to their friends at school and a few friends from our neighborhood, and we're planning games, and have a theme. They are beyond excited! We have been counting down how many days until their party ever since the box arrived with all the party stuff in it (nearly a month ago).

I had thought for sure that they would want a princess party, given their current affinity for all things princess. But when we got a catalog in the mail from Birthday's Express that had all types of party supplies and tons of themes, they went positively gaga over the Pink Poodle theme.

And so we are having a Pink Poodle Party (I love alliteration) on April 15. We'll be playing Pin the Tail on Fifi the Poodle; Poodle, poodle, where's your bone?; and Pass the Poodle Bone. If we have time, we'll play Fifi Says (think Simon Says). There will be cupcakes with pink frosting and pink lemonade to drink, and pink M&Ms, and pink & purple candles and balloons and streamers. Gaaa. But Livvy and Katy LOVE it. And that's what really matters, right?
