A Night Owl Party

Lucy recently celebrated her 6th birthday and to help her celebrate we surprised her with a "Night Owl Party"!  While she was attending school Friday we busily set up her party decorations.  When she returned home she was so surprised and excited.  The look of excitement was so well worth the work put into her party.

We had made the dining room table into a bed.  Making the headboard from foam board.  Then to give an "outdoors" feel we stacked the cake and cupcakes onto pieces of wood. 

The cupcake toppers were edible, made from royal icing.  We also had put together s'mores pops.  Do you know they now sell flat square marshmallows?  These fit perfectly in between two graham crackers drizzled with chocolate syrup.  We made owl sugar cookies that matched her party invitations.  The treat bags were in the shape of an owl's head and filled with gummy worms.  The kids are crazy about those things.

The little girls showed up dressed in their PJs.  They were all so cute and silly as little "night owls" should be!
