Mikayla had the great idea to do a make your own pizza/cupcake, movie party for her 13th birthday.
We also decided to go with a neon theme for the decorations.
A few pictures before all the girls arrived. Landen was right there in the midst of everything.=)
Can't believe my baby girl is 13!! There is no accounting for where the time has gone, but I am just so blessed to call her my daughter and friend!
I set Landen up at the other table with a few toppings so he would be out of my way while I got the pizzas ready. Jeff found him a few minutes later just eating all the toppings!
I eventually sent all the boys away so the girls could get started making their pizzas. We did use pre made crusts because I am not that crazy!
I love the look Mikayla and her friend are giving each other! She has the best group of friends from school/church.
Just a few toppings!
Mikayla's creations. I also made the cupcakes ahead of time, but I made about 60 cupcakes because I am a little cray cray. (Mikayla has banned me from saying cray cray in her presence.) Yep, I have a teenager!
The girls had so much fun with the decorating and talked non-stop the entire party(4 hours!) They had so much fun and Mikayla even said it was "so much fun!" She even thanked me for all the work I did!
Anything for my baby girl! It was my pleasure to be able to give her a great day with her friends to celebrate that special day 13 years ago in Lodi when I endured 24 hours of drug-free labor to bring her into this world. Ha! I was about as exhausted after the party as I was the day she was born. I'll pretty much do anything to avoid a sleepover with ten 13 year old girls.
We finished the night by watching Soul Surfer. The girls chatted through the whole movie, too!
