Kiera had planned on having a few of her girl friends over for a "Teddy Bear Picnic" to help celebrate her birthday. She was so disappointed that it was snowy and cold - here's a picture of her by our popcorn trees with snow coming down. But we moved the picnic tables inside and had a grand ol' time anyway!
Kiera had 10 of her friends - and 10 of their bears - over for a picnic of mini pb&j sandwiches, strawberries, potato chips, Teddy Grahams, gummy bears and lemonade. Even the bears had tiny plates and cups for their picnic.
After the picnic, we played a game where all of the bears were put in a big bag and each girl was blindfolded and had 30 seconds to feel for their bear. They all did a good job! Then we played "Bear Musical Chairs," opened presents had and cake and ice cream. Kiera requested a green frosted cake with a little piece of fabric and a tiny bear on it. Very simple, but it turned out cute - and just the way she wanted.
Check out these cute "Teddy Bear Tea Party" badges I got online from the Girl Scouts.... The girls had fun pinning them on their shirts or their bears.
After the friend party, we went to The Old Spaghetti Factory with the grandmas - Granny, Nana, Grandma Stephens - and Aunt Shlenae.
Then - if that wasn't enough fun - we had some more cake and ice cream with family in the evening! It was a busy and fun day!

So fun! Our girls loved the party-thanks for inviting them. We really do need to get them together this summer!
