Eight
Alona decided this year that to celebrate her birthday she wanted to have a sleepover.
I was getting quite worried, I handed out most of the invitations more than a week in advance
most of the replies were coming back that they would be able to come but then would come get their girls at bed time. I didnt want her first attempt at a sleepover to be totally ruined.
I was pleasantly surprised when Donna's mom called to tell me that she would be coming!
And not that she would only allow her to stay until bed time, but that she would come for the party!!

Alona was so excited for her friends to show up and get the party started. She was waiting outside for more than a half hour, until she got a little discouraged and decided to come eat some pizza. And then they all showed up!
After eating pizza and breadsticks they played hide and seek, that was really fun! There were some good hiders!
When Paul came home for his lunch break
they were all called in for presents

Alona got a camera and walkie talkies from Mom and Dad.Some books, notebook, pencils and a ball from her friends
And then they spread out sleeping bags, candy, popcorn and root beer floats
for a night of fun movies
Before two of the girls left we watched the Tooth Fairy
and then Alona and Donna decided to watch Enchanted and stay up until one am talking
They decided to fore go sleeping on the floor and put their sleeping bags on the couches
probably not a good idea, its easy to roll in a sleeping bag...right on to the hard floor

Kate came back and joined us for breakfast. French toast, eggs and fruit
and then the girls made necklaces from the assortment of beads that we have
