Pictures of Mara's Birthday Party

Mara's Groovy Party

You can see pics of Mara's party here.

We started with my sister helping to get the girls "groovy," with a bit of nail polish, lip gloss, glitter spray, smell goods, and hair clips.

Then, the kids got to play in the living room with all Mara's Groovy Girls and accessories. Only one other kid had GG's, and it was my niece and the GG's we had gifted her.

After that, we made candy jewelry, which didn't work out very well, but which was fun anyway.

Finally, we spent time coloring in wooden cutouts of GGs (not brand name, though) and trains.

Then, cake and presents. It was a 3 hour party. I really didn't anticipate it taking so long.

Oh, and our menu centered around a tropical smoothie sporting dainty umbrellas and fun, curvy straws. We also served up PB&J and turkey/cheese sandwiches cut out in the shapes of hearts, flowers, and butterflies. There were grapes and other salty snacks.
