Happy Birthday Sam and Ariel!

Hello everyone! It's Morgan here to blog about the amazing birthdays of our friends Sam and Ariel. Yesterday we had a birthday party for them. It was a lot of fun, and we wanted to share part of it with you.

The party was held at Hazel and Ariel's house. Melodie and I helped set up and hang decorations.

Pin the Tail on the Mermaid

Emily made the volcano. We put a tea light into it to make it glow.

Soon after we finished decorating, the guests arrived. We all sat down while Sam and Ariel opened presents. afterwards, we played games. The little girls had a lot of fun trying to pin the tail onto the mermaid, and Ariel got really close to putting it on exactly. Then, we all gathered around to play Hot Potato. Melodie took a few pictures while she played Beach Boys. I love Surfin' USA.

Us playing Hot Potato. I won the first game and Audrey won the second one.

After games, it was time for cake and ice cream. We talked for a little while, and then everybody had to leave. Sam stayed to take pictures with her presents.

Ariel and her presents. The stuffed animal was from her family, and we made the floral dress on the bottom right. The crown was from her sister Hazel.

Sam and her presents. The laptop in from her mom, the camera in the top left is from her dad, and the pillow is from us.

We had so much fun getting to celebrate our two unique friends. They bring such joy to our lives.
