pet shop prep

here is a glimpse into the planning and decorations that went into 

selah's pet shop party!

 decorations were easy with all the lps toys we already had around here!

i also found some fun animal print paper in the right colours 

that the girls made paper chains out of.

(fun idea to replace streamers...)

 this was my first time hanging balloons from the ceiling,

i'm a fan!

who needs helium now?!

pet shop cupcakes.

 i think this was my simplest party cake to date,

and i love how they turned out.

(each child went home with a little pet)

 a friend of mine made these pretzels for her daughter's party.

i was excited to give them a try for selah's...

they were very popular!

and this is what each child got take home at the end of the party - a pet!

here is the birthday girl excited to see her first friend arrive for her pet shop party!

i'll tell you more about the crafts and games we did to 

'learn about caring for pets' in my next post...
