Kali with the birthday girl!

 With Cousin C

  Her crazy smiles again...

 The older cousins took good care of Logan and Kali...

 After dinner they made a "clubhouse" in the corner

 Kali made a new firend. She walked up to this girl and sat on her lap for an hour...played with her necklace, petted her hair and watched her talk.

 Dad was the DJ for the night! First ones on the dance floor were Kali and Logan ---also the last ones off!

Happy Birthday, Lauren! We love you!

Pizza and Breakdancing

We went to Kiran's 4th birthday. Logan was super excited because it was a pizza party and he has been saying when he grows up he's going to be a chef.

 LOVE the chef hats that all the kids decorated!

 Learning how to make pizza dough!

 Logan gives it a try

 Time for toppings

 After pizza it was time for a break dancing lesson!

 Dance off!

 Logan asked to get his picture taken with the breaker...

Happy 4th Birthday, Kiran!

Logan's Dance Birthday Party

Logan had his 4th birthday and by his request we had a dance party!

The Decor

I made some tissue pom-poms -very simple to make and so cute!

I made some record bowls to hold tattoos and made some signs from the Ikea frame with Logan's picture (like I did for Kali's birthday party)

These I reused from Logan's 1st birthday party --I just added a little disco ball that I picked up at the dollar store at Christmas time. I just punched out different sized circles out of shiny sticker paper with my circle punch and then stuck them on a ribbon.

The cupcake stand got a quick re-do the night before --It was a wild zebra print for Logan's 3rd birthday and an elegant black and white for Kalia's Baptism). The tutorial is here.

Activities

Pin-the-Record-on-the-Record-Player / Blind DJ

With my amazing drawing skills (ha!) I sketched out a DJ set up and then punched out some circles out of black paper. Add a scarf and we had a game perfect for a dance party!

 Logan had fun helping the smaller kids

 Disco Ball Craft
I cut sticker paper into little squares and the kids put them on paper plates to create their own disco balls

Thanks for making my 4th birthday awesome!
