Macey's Paw Patrol Party

February 15:  THIS girl!  And her love for Paw Patrol... a group of animals who are best friends.. that help people--it's a show that was made for my Macey!  We went back and forth a bit trying to decide what do for Macey's party but it really wasn't hard--she wanted to invite her WHOLE class (and some other friends) and she wanted a Paw Patrol party!  I had fun planning some activities.

We came up with the idea to make a little "Paws-port" for the kids to travel to different activities and earn stamps.  When they arrived at the party, they got to decorate their "paws-port"...

Their activities included:  Coloring their Pawsport, Dog Treat (Cookie) Decorating, Pin the Badge on Skye, Doggie Bone Toss, Musical Chairs, and a Pinata.  After completing each fun game/activity they got a pawprint stamp.

Finishing off the Party with a Pinata...

Macey birthday fell on a Monday that the kids were out of school.  She had been sick the two days previous so I was so thankful she was feeling better.  I was also preparing to travel to Iowa for Lindsey's final chemo treatment (on the next day).  I felt like Macey's birthday kind of ran by in a blur--preparing for her party, making plans to be gone overnight, rushing to clean up, driving to Iowa... I'm glad we got to have her party--she loved having her friends their to celebrate with her!  Luckily we had a little re-do to celebrate as a family a few days later.
