On Saturday we celebrated Hannah's birthday with her friends. Bryan and I decided to host a "tea party" for them, and I have to brag that he once again pulled through as the World's Best Daddy by orchestrating a wonderful time for all!
After "tea", Hannah opened her gifts. The girls, of course, all crowded around and "oohed" and "ahhed" over everything. 
Hannah asked for a pinata filled with candy. We found one that didn't require a baseball bat to break open. The girls were supposed to take turns pulling the ribbons until the correct one ripped the pinata open. Hannah went first and surprised us all by choosing the right ribbon and showering everyone with candy! Here they are collecting their loot. The ribbons from the pinata are visible at the top of the picture.
Showing off their candy bags! (Just what they needed the morning after Halloween!)
Obligatory games... Hannah's favorite (and still mine)... Pin the tail on the donkey!
The girls made beaded jewelry to wear home. I was amazed at how diligently (and quietly) they all worked and how pretty the bracelets turned out. The beads were really tiny and intricate!

The party girls. What a beautiful group of lovely ladies! We had so much fun!
When the girls arrived, they played for a bit and then they snacked on cinnamon rolls, fresh fruit, chips, juice, and birthday cupcakes from the local bakery!
