It went off without a hitch. ALL of the kids came when I asked and sat in circle, waiting to choose their new puppy to adopt. Which they did without fighting. They named them, groomed them, gave them puppy check-ups and played with them to their little heart's content. I heard from more than one mom that the kids kept up the cuddling and loving on their puppies long after they got home. I know my kids still love those darn things :) We ate hot dogs, puppy chow, dog bone graham crackers, and fruit, veggies, and chips served in dog bowls. And of course, puppy-decorated cupcakes. Simple, yet unique and totally Lily!
She was the belle of the ball and enjoyed every minute of her party. From adopting her puppy, to snacking away her lunch and playing outside with her cousins and friends; from hearing everyone sing Happy Birthday to her, to opening her presents and exclaiming over each and every gift. Happy 2nd birthday, sweet girl!
