Another great time was had by all! This was our 2nd Annual party and Sophia was super excited to host her friends! I tried to scale it back just a bit this year as I felt my crafts from last year were a bit ambitious. Our crafts were: adorable penguin hats, Christmas tree picture frames, and stamp painting with themed cookie cutters. There were no pictures of the last one because well quite frankly I couldn't wield the camera and control the paint situation...regardless Leo still managed to eat one of the paint covered cookie cutters! The we had a book corner and cookie decorating station. Our lunch was filled with festive goodies, as you should expect no less, including eggnog spice coffee cake, spiced cider, and quiche. We then did a book exchange and each kiddo got to open a present. It was a full house of fun and laughter and we're looking forward to keeping this tradition going!
