Eden's 5th Birthday

My daughter had a blast at her "carnival." It rained shortly before the guests arrived. Because I was in a crunch for time, very few of the decorations/ games I had crafted got used, but no one seemed to mind. It was all about family, friendships, food, and fun.

• Desserts

  Cupcakes topped with rubber duckies

• Party Favors

  Cotton candy, coloring sheets, and games prizes

• Activities / Games

  Face painting, sliding on the gigantic slide, jumping on the trampoline, playing a couple of carnival games, and having an impromptu water balloon war (organized completed by the kids in which no one from 3-16 was shown any mercy).

• Budget

  I was very thrifty. Most of the money went to entertainment.

• What People Ate

  Curry chicken, jerk chicken, rice and peas, and pizza

• What People Drank

  Bottled water, lemonade, and sodas

• Best Moment

  When Eden bolted up the hill when she saw Gran E Luv in order to give her a hug

• Funniest Moment

  The water balloon war

• Most Touching Moment

  The sentiments her grandmother expressed during her prayer/blessing

• Best Dressed

  Her brother who in full clown regalia told guests, "Welcome to Eden's carnival, the fun begins in the backyard."

• Gran E Luv

  Entertainment

  A terrific clown, magician, and balloon artist
