Carli's Birthday Slumber Party

I have neglected my blog duties because Carli's birthday is a month-long event!  After the family party, the day-of celebration, the classroom celebration and finally the slumber party, we have now concluded Carli's birthday events!!  I need a year to rest up for next year's festivities!

Carli had great fun at her slumber party.  She planned every detail carefully.  The evening started with a Fear Factor-like game of guessing what you were touching while you were blindfolded.  The girls got quite dramatic about it, but had a good time.  They were pretty good at guessing the items, too.

We then moved on to a M&M game where each girl had a bowl of M&M's and needed to pick up two at a time without looking.  If they were the same color, they could chew them but if they were a different color, the girls had to suck them.  At one point, Carli had 18 M&M's in her mouth!

The girls then danced with the Wii and watched "Pitch Perfect".  It was then time for ice cream sundaes.  At midnight, the girls were still going strong (and I noticed that the remaining sundae toppings had been eaten--hence the sugar high the girls were on!)

In the morning, the girls woke up at 6:45 and were ready for their Nutella and strawberry crepes.  It was fun and Carli had a good time; although I was very tired the entire day!  It is good to be 11!
