Em had an easy decision to make when it came to deciding about her birthday party theme this year!
Frozen stuff is really difficult to find because of the crazy popularity of the movie, but luckily, I found lots of great printable templates on Etsy, and we made most of our decorations, including the banners and popcorn boxes that we filled with popcorn and cheese doodles.
It was a beautiful day, so we filled up a bunch of water balloons and had a big picture printed of the snow monster from Frozen. The kids had a great time throwing water balloons at the monster!
I don't think any of them even threw balloons at each other :).
It took them a fraction of the time to throw the balloons as it did for us to fill them all!
About 30 minutes in, we started the movie. I wasn't expecting all the kids to gather around to watch it, but they did! The movie was just released this past week, so we had to make sure we had it in time for the party.
Captive audience!
I got the cake from Publix for the second year in a row, and again, they did a great job! I don't think I'll buy cakes anywhere else from here on out.
Here's the birthday song--Em is such a silly girl when the attention is all on her!

Here's Em with her friend Emma. Even her outfit was handmade from Etsy, and she loved it!
One of the best things about the party was that Em's cousins made it! Jason and Jenn were heading to my parents' house and were passing through Charlotte on Saturday, so Cody and Chase got to enjoy the birthday festivities! The three of them really enjoyed spending time together after all the party craziness ended. This was the craft table we had set up, where kids could either make tiaras or reindeer antlers.
The tiaras were long gone, but there were some antlers left for the three of them to decorate when the party was over!
It was chaotic, but a fun party.
Sunday was a fun day to open birthday presents! We did a pretty thorough cleaning out of some old toys too, and returned a few things that were duplicates.
