For my daughters best friends birthday, we held a Surprise Slumber Party at our house, as her friends house did not really have the appropriate accommodations. She is from Romania, and has never had a birthday party before, so we wanted to make it extra special! Since the girls are 7 and 8, we kept the amount of girls to six. The other girls all showed up a little early and helped put Christmas lights all around the basement. Daddy lit a cozy fire in the fireplace, and we loaded up the ceiling with helium balloons. After the very surprised and happy guest of honor arrived, we did girl stuff (clay masks, pedicures complete with peppermint foot massage cream, manicures, hairdo's, played music, foosball, made pizzas and even roasted marshmallows -with adult supervision of course!) The girls had a ball and felt very grown up. The girls received matching necklaces from Claire's Accessories as a special memento. When thank you notes were written, each girl! received a photo of the group of them mugging it up with their green clay masks on! It was a real hit - and we are doing it again for my daughters special day!
