We recently celebrated Kaya's Birth-DAY!! First, she was treated to a yummy breakfast at IHOP with the family & Uncle Nick.
In the afternoon, Kaya had a small "friend" party with 4 other girls. Kaya's only birthday party request was to have a dog pinata. So I went with a dog theme. I found most of the supplies in the $1 section at Target and the Dollar Store. The girl's LOVED it!!!Each girl got a dog to take home. They decorated the dogs with ribbon and made them a collar with beads. (That doubled as a bracelet for the girls). I found some cute dog food dishes that we used to put the beads in and later used to eat our cake and ice cream!
We played Pin the Tail on the Doggie (Thanks to Uncle Nick's super talented art skills).
We played dance freeze to "Who Let the Dogs Out". The girls LOVED this activity.
We decorated dog bone shaped sugar cookies.
Of course there was presents. Kaya was spoiled by her family and friends!!
The girls had fun whacking the pinata. Unfotuneately the head came off after the 3rd whack. So we duck taped him back together to give everyone a chance.
We finished up with cake and ice cream. I baked the cake and Aaron made homemade mint chip ice cream. YUMMY!! 
We finished our party with about 10 minutes to spare. It couldn't have turned out better. I found these little bags 3/$1 at Target. I put in a pair of socks with pink dog paws on them, a sheet of dog stickers, and pack of Scooby Doo fruit snacks. The girls took home their decorated dogs, their dog dish, decorated cookies, and candy from the pinata.
After some party recovery, I took Kaya to get her birthday pictures done. We only do this once a year and they turned out very nice. We picked some dinner up on the way home and had a quiet evening playing with her new toys and watching her new Barbie movie. Thanks to everyone who made Kaya's birthday special. She is one very LUCKY and LOVED little girl!!
