Aurora's Butterfly Birthday

Last Saturday (6/19), after Emerson's dance class, we headed home to get our party dress on for Aurora's Butterfly Birthday Party!!!  Kelly, Aurora's mom, was very brave to have nine very silly and crazy girls in her house with their parents, but I do appreciate it, because it was a scorcher that day. Everyone had a great time crafting butterflies, pinning the dot on the butterfly, eating cupcakes, pizza and butterfly sandwiches, opening gifts, marching in the band, and eventually settling down for a moment of QUIET with Tiana and her frog!  It was a great party and we were so excited to be invited.  Thanks Giovanello family for hosting the perfect butterfly bash!!!

The girls loved the cupcakes!!

Emerson devoured hers!!

Pin the dot on the butterfly.  

The prize was a very cool butterfly mask.

All the girls (with and without masks).

Opening presents....second best part!!

The impromptu marching band...

I think they went around the house at least 20 times. 

Ahh...a moment of silence.  Tiana, we parents, bow to you!!

I love this picture of Aurora stealing a moment to herself 

amongst all the playing chaos!!
