Number 9

Quinn is 9! And celebrated with her 7 friends (and sister) singing her happy birthday at the top of their lungs

They started the evening with an intense game of lazer tag

Homemade lightning bolt strawberry cupcakes and lighting bolt pinata. Quinn loves lightning.

Pinata in the dark! We needed flashlights to find the fallen candy...

A game of Pass the Parcel is a mainstay at any Kiwi kid party. The prize is wrapped in a multiple layers of newspaper with a piece of candy in between each layer. As the music plays, the parcel is passed around and when the music stops the person holding it gets to unwrap one layer... so it goes until the ultimate prize. The parents have a lot of sway here in terms of when the music stops...

Pizza for the crew

And finally, a 'sleep'over

Quinn was giddy in anticipation of her birthday and luckily the night did not disappoint!

Quincy came by the next day and dropped off a sweet photo montage (including the one below) of their 5 years as friends.
