Yes, the party continues and this time, it was the real party. I had rented out the community center and also the largest Princess bouncy house I could find. This week had been quite stressful between trying to find time prepping for the party (baking cakes, making goody bags, cooking, making craft crowns and shopping, shopping, shopping) and continuing to work on my dissertation, but we pulled it all together. Makaela, Mia, my mom got an hour by ourselves in the bouncy house and totally enjoyed it. 
When her friends arrived, it was bouncy time. Here are some pics of them hamming it up.
Look at this bunch- best friends :-)
Mia had fun with her friends too.
This cake is actually three cakes and Makaela found this design on a website over a month ago. She helped me decorate it that morning and showed everyone her cake when they arrived at the party (like literally walked them to the fridge). When it was time to sing to her, she was smug, but as soon as the knife came out to cut the cake, she freaked out. She didn't want her bootiful castle cake cut. She wanted us to just eat the cake with our forks.
After all was said and done, Makaela ended up sneaking up to the cake, looking around to see if anyone was watching and leaned in for a bite. She bit and then ran off but Uncle Brian saw the whole thing and I had to take a picture of the evidence. That kept us laughing for a while.
Makaela and Mia had coordinating outfits with their fun skirts and Abby showed up wearing one too!
We made lots of little people crowns. We were all jeweled up.
Even after the bouncy house was gone, the kids had a great time playing with the dads.
