Party on, Molls

Since we've been to what seems like a million birthday parties for Molly's school friends, we decided to return the favor this year and have one too. It felt a little stressful at first, planning it in a hurry before we left for Spain. Venue #1, the pavilion at our favorite park, fell through, so we basically ended up copying another kid's party and having it at Little Beans, an indoor playground in Evanston. I'm so happy it worked out that way because the party couldn't have been easier. We pretty much just checked a few boxes on their website, picked up a cake, and then showed up on party day.  

The party was a lot of fun, but also bittersweet -- it will be one of the last get-togethers for this group of friends (and their parents). Molly has been in the same class with some of these kids since she was 2 years old! I'm going to miss their little faces.

Cake! Cake! Cake!  The class loves to chant -- it's their thing

Too loud Molls?
