Full of Hello Kitty!

Sooo...we had two birthday parties to attend this past weekend and both were Hello Kitty themed! The first Hello Kitty themed birthday party was for dear sweet Mariah Howard who was turning 7yrs old. It started at 4pm and lasted til 6pm although we had to leave early to attend the OTHER Hello Kitty party. When we got to Mariah's party it was fully decorated in Hello Kitty decor and had kid's music playing in the background. The snacks were fruit consisting of strawberries, watermelon, and apples along with some veggies with dip and goldfish crackers. The first activity we did was the Hello Kitty bean bag toss which I have to give props to Mariah's mom Kristen for doing such a fabolous job. Caleb seemed to really enjoy this game:






After the bean bag toss we moved over to the next activity which was pin the bow on Hello Kitty. Caleb was a little short for this one but he made Hello Kitty's feet really pretty with the bow. :)





Next came cake time in which Caleb sat very patiently for.



When the cake came out the kids gathered around to celebrate and sing Happy birthday to sweet Mariah.




After Caleb inhaled the cake we had to say goodbye so that we could head over the second Hello Kitty party. We had such a good time with Mariah and her friends and family!



2ND HELLO KITTY PARTY:

Now this Hello Kitty party was for a little girl named Itzel who was turning 4. She is the daughter of my mom's friend from work. The party started at 3:30pm but we didn't get there until 5:45pm. When we got there we could tell it was going to be a little different than what we had just experienced with Mariah. This one had a dj that played fiesta music extremely loud as if we were at a club. It was very hard to hear anyone so we sat as far in the back as we could..AWAY from the loudness. Caleb was not happy with the noise level. Lol. We ate a spicy shredded beef with tortillas, beans, and rice. Caleb ate...DORITOS. Two hours after we ate, they had pinata time for the kids. Caleb was really excited about this!




It was filled with Mexican candy so Caleb didn't really enjoy that. He did find one lollipop he liked and ate that. They had two pinatas so we had to wait a while before this activity was over. About 8pm it was cake time and goodie bags time. Caleb went up to get his goodie bag:



It had M&M's and some spicy cheetos and other Mexican candies in which Caleb only ate the M&M's. He tried the cheetos (we thought they were regular at first) and got upset when his mouth was on fire. Lol. The cake was really beautiful and very yummy. It was a tres leches cake which they served with a fruit salad. We finally left right after and headed home talking about the two Hello Kitty parties we were just at and laughing at how extremely different the two were. Good times!
