My Morgan, such a contradiction

Morgan turned 8 on October 23rd. Morgan is a very unique little girl. She is not what you would expect sometimes. She is smart yet very silly(and funny), she is a perfectionist but ruins everything she wears, she is a people pleaser yet sneaky, she loves dolls and legos.
Right after Joshua was born, Morgan wanted to plan her birthday party. I was a bit overwhelmed at the thought of planning and hosting two birthday parties with a newborn. So I suggested that she call Grandma K. My mom was a life saver. She planned, organized and hosted Morgan's American Girl Doll party and it was a blast!!!

The girls played a dress up game with accessories for themselves and their dolls. It was fun to see what combinations they were coming up with.


We then decorated square cookies for Morgan's "quilt cookie cake". Lots of sugar and a great looking finished product.


My mom had made the girls each a scarf and prepared material for them to make a matching scarf for their dolls. The girls really thought that was special.




Morgan insisted we do a tea party dinner theme. So we decorated the table with the finest china. Morgan requested that we serve Halloween themed foods at the tea party??? So we had mummies on a stick and peanut and white chocolate eye balls. The girls loved the mummies, but not to sure about the eyeballs. They looked very life like!







We ended the party with a scavenger hunt that included finding keys and determining which one opened the "goodie" box. We had 9 girls running around screaming and having so much fun with this game. I loved this party, it turned out to be one of my favorites. All of my mom's help may have something to do with that.
PS-Thanks to the Knepper's for keeping Joshua and protecting him from being kissed to death by all of those little girls!
