Clara's Big Birthday Bash

Clara's birthday was a busy day for our family.  Due to an orchestra concert we decided to celebrate as a family on Friday instead.  So I planned a friend party for her on her actual birthday during the day.  It was a doozie.  The theme was St. Patricks Day.  






 We started out with lunch.  Green, of course, was the theme:




 Cute Landon and Stone:
 After lunch was the treasure hunt:



 This picuture of Ren, the cute blonde, is adorable:
 The treasure was shamrock boppers:
 Presents were next.  At first the crowd kept their distance, but in a matter of seconds, the crowd had encroached:

 My friend Molly brought a pinata and the kids had a good time with it:




 The grand finale was the cake (cupcakes):

It was very fun, but I was beat by the end!  Thank goodness for several of the mom's who stayed to help me.  It would have been a disaster without them.  I think fun was had by all.
