Olivia had a great birthday this year. At first we tried to tell her we didn't think a birthday party was a good idea with all this COVID stuff going on and she burst into hard core hysterics. So then we decided perhaps we could swing an outdoor birthday? She wanted to throw a Zac Efron Birthday Party and I said absolutely not! So then she settled on a Greatest Showman carnival type birthday instead and just asked all her friends to give her Zac Efron paraphernalia.
Wren totally came through with this awful Zac Efron pillow that Olivia loves.
We set up fun little carnival game stations around the back yard where you won prizes and allowed her to invite a few friends. There was a ball toss and if you got in the jar you won a box of swedish fish.
All girls made these cute sparkly headbands with a fluffy pink feather and we set up a photo booth.
We had a rub on tattoo booth and my friend Kassie came and did face painting. They shot nerf guns at stacked cups, we had a bean bag toss, we let them throw glow stick bracelets on 2L bottles like a ring toss and then they kept the glow bracelets to wear during them movie. Other prizes included animal crackers, and stick on mustaches or unibrows (or both) whichever suits your fancy.
We served corndogs and Papa John's pizza, and lemonade.
There was also popcorn, circus peanuts, circus cookies, cotton candy. And instead of a traditional cake Olivia asked for a cheesecake.
Then, when it got dark we set up an outdoor movie screen and they all watched the Greatest Showman.
