Clara Margaret

Clara's birthday party was this past weekend. I chose a whale theme for the party. It may have gone a little too far but I had fun planning it.
We had a Whale of a pizza, which I forgot to take a picture of but take my word for it. It was huge. Shark teeth, triangle shaped mozzarella cheese. Goldfish crackers. Skewered grapes to look like coral. Fishing rods, pretzel rods. Octo-dogs, hot dogs cut to look like octopus. Seaweed salad, regular salad with a fun name. Fish bowls, blue jello in a clear cup with a Swedish fish floating in the jello. Starfish cookies, cutout star cookies. Cupcakes with blue icing to look like waves.
We borrowed a bouncy house for the kids and it was a huge hit!
Then some balloons were blown up and all the kids attacked Uncle Craig, Craig's brother-in-law.
Clara had some help opening gifts as she had no interest in that part. All of her toys have now been taken over by her brothers. Especially these two baby dolls that giggle.
We had a blast and are so thankful to have such great families to help us celebrate.
