2012 - To Be Announced
The kids' (Lillianne's 6th/Roman's & Tristan's 4th) Birthday Party Theme for 2012 is in the early planning stages. We'll announce in a few months when some decisions are made.
Keep an eye & an ear out for more information in coming months...
2011 - Disneyland
To end our "Year of Disneyland", we decorated the house with a couple hundred photos of our trips to Disneyland for the Home Edition of the Birthday Party. Disney music set the atmosphere for the party, as we played games where the kids won Disney Trading Pins, Mouse Ear Hats, & Tiaras. Lillianne requested her first pinata, which the kids gathered candy from into their 'vintage Disneyland popcorn boxes'.
The following week was included a few days at the Disneyland Resort, to end our Annual Passports the right way - The Parks Edition of the Birthday. We stayed at the HoJo across from the Parks, with a view of the Matterhorn from our room & a Pirate Ship Sprayground at the pool. We enjoyed our regular Birthday Dinner at the Anaheim Buca. And the kids each got to build their own RideMakerz cars at Downtown Disney.
2010 - Barbie and the Nutcracker
Lillianne & the girls all dressed in tiaras & tutus. Roman, Tristan & the boys were issued capes & swords. We made the best of the grounds at the Mira Mesa apartment with train rides, dancing & games.
2009 - Neverland
This was the first of the big joint birthday parties. Lillianne's 3rd & the Twins' 1st birthday. At a perfectly laid-out park in Santee, we took the trip to the 2nd star on the right & straight on till morning. For this trip to Neverland, all the girls decorated their own fairie wings. The boys decorated their own pirate, pan, and other lost boy hats. Captain Hook organized a Lost Boy Favorite - Find Hook's Treasure, where they followed the familiar map of Neverland (laid out to relate to the park) to Hook's Treasure Chest full of treasures.
2008 - Lillianne's Second
Lilly's second birthday was a repeat of her first birthday, with the addition of an air matress and a lot fewer people. Both due to the fact that Jennifer was about to have Roman & Tristan a couple weeks later.
2007 - Strawberries & Ladybugs
Lillianne's First Birthday was all about strawberries & her ladybug dress. We had lots of friends & kids at the local park in Santee, around the corner from home. |
