Happy Birthday Jesus!

Today was the big day...Jesus' birthday party. I have been planning this party for the children of the ladies in MOPS (mothers of preschoolers) for about a month. It was originally planned for Friday but with the snow storm we had to reschedule. Even though it was snowing yet again today we had a nice turn out, about 20 toddlers!

The party consisted of story time, pin the flame on Jesus' birthday cake, create an ornament, decorate a party hat, and we ended with a birthday parade and cupcakes. It went better than I expected (probably because of all the help I got from my friends). Here are a couple of my favorite pictures from the day.

Here is a group of kids creating a baby Jesus ornament

Last, but not least my friend Karen and "baby Allie"


Thanks to every one who helped make this party a success. Happy birthday Jesus!
