Although Bella's actual birthday isn't until the 18th, we needed to have her party early because our friends and neighbors are moving back to the states next Saturday . *sad face!* Why is it this kid seems to get multiple parties every year??? LOL! This year we had it at the post bowling alley. Expensive, but no clean up! *happy face!*
I made a cupcake tower. Strawberry cakes with whipped vanilla frosting!
And silver sprinkles - of course!
Bella's name in Italian candles!
Goodie bags
Bella's bag

(I think the word is out that she LOVES H.K.!!!)
Bella's own PINK DS from Mom & Dad!!!
Happy kid? I think so!!!
Yep, definitely!
Two DS games from Mom & Dad: Littlest Pet Shop & fashion maker
She didn't want to put it down!

SO STINKING EXCITED!!
Miss Cassy went WAY overboard because she's abandoning leaving us in a week! It's going to be so sad around here after she and the kids are gone!!!
Time for cupcakes!
Make a wish, Bella!
Great job!!
Although we didn't have to clean up, I couldn't help myself, lol! I threw all the trash away and picked up the toys. The kids ran around playing with their goodie bag toys, while the parents chatted. It was a really nice afternoon!
And then Mom jumped on the DS bandwagon and picked up one for herself at the PX....but that's another post, for another time!
And The Bella wasn't to be seen after we got home until bath time!! She played, and played, and played! And this morning? Is still playing!!! Another successful birthday!! And yes, we'll be doing something super fun on her birthday too....
What a great party! I love those lights too. What a fun idea to have it at the bowling alley. Happy Birthday sweet Bella!!! Great gifts too! wow!!! Hugs SueAnn
Oh what fun! Loved the birthday party pics. Got the card in the mail...perfect timing...spent the weekend with Kat in Atlanta at a Women of Faith conference. She loved the card...thought it looked like Holly Hobby. What a hit!
Looks like a great birthday party. I always liked doing parties that required little/no clean up. The bowling alley is a great idea & blacklight bowling, how fun is that? Everything looked amazing. You did a good job mom!
It looks like the birthday party was a hit. The kids looked like they were having fun, and Bella was a good little bowler. The pizza looked delicious (i love pizza!) and it looks like she got a lot of birthday gifts. I'm glad she had a great birthday party with her friends.
Bella looks like she had a blast! So glad she got to spend it with her friends. Have to laugh that mommy needed a DS as well. Can't wait to hear all about that! You did a great job on the decorations. Happy Birthday Bella but God gave you the best gift ...a wonderful mommy!
Happy birthday, kiddo! And my daughter is getting a DS for her birthday, too. If only she would narrow down her game choices…she's got over a dozen games on her list and keeps adding more! Hey, at least I can get a lot of them pre-owned. Interested in hearing why you decided to get one, too!
Who am I??? Well, a lot more than will fit into a little box! I am many things, to many people, but I am and always will be...the Queen! I'm an Air Force veteran, a retired Army Wife, an Army Mom, and an Air Force Mom! I have a passion for paper crafting, especially stamping. It's a terrific way to be creative, even if you have little "artistic" talent like me, lol! My family is everything to me, and I think it shows in everything I do. Happiness is my realm, and I personally welcome you!

Bowling and pizza... Can't go wrong with that! :)
Sounds like she had a fantastic birthday celebration, and loads of great presents.
How old is she? I don't remember you saying at any point... I'm guessing 7 or 8?
