I love to throw a party. I love to brainstorm about throwing a party. I love all the details and the random thoughts that come to me when I should be sleeping. We have had a circus party with a kid’s parade, a chef party with custom recipes, movie night with a concession stand and a gymnastics party with personalized medals for the party goes. I always had intricate invitations, custom cupcakes with handmade toppers and party décor that brought the whole party together.
It is time to plan yet another birthday party for our oldest. I was ready to create an extravagant scavenger hunt for her and all her friends. I asked Emma what she thought and she told me that would be great, but what she really wanted was a mud party. I thought I heard her wrong. Mud. Dirt and water together. She said she just wanted to be able to play in the mud with all her friends.
I realized that while all the other parties were fun and full of details, she really just wanted to play like a kid. So this year as she turns 8, she will get her mud party. I sent an email (not even an evite) to the moms and the party was set. No crazy planning. No stress and I am actually looking forward to the stress free party!
I will post pictures after the party. I am sure I will be smiling and not stressing and the kids will be knee high in mud and fun!
