Snow Party

My mom (aka Granny) read about this adorable "Snowman Party" and decided it would be a great thing for the kids. I agreed and we put our heads together to come up with some ideas. But life being the crazy thing that it is with work, three kids, illnesses, jury duty, aging parents to care for, and actual snow the party keep getting pushed aside.

After about a six week absence Granny made it to Tennessee for a visit. Turned out the weather was quite nice... not a snowflake in sight... at least not outside! We did a few "snowy" activities Saturday evening. The kids had a blast!

Emeline's beautiful paper snowflakes were perfect for this party too...




What party is complete without some delicious treats...



Emeline thought it was so silly when the icing dripped on her lip...



After all that paint Owen needed a bath. Bubbles are kind of like snow for a kid from Tennessee...



The finished products...

Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun with your snow party. We are going up to the mountains for a long weekend in March, so maybe we will try some of your ideas then. I think I'm going to search the internet for some other ideas too.
