Pony Party!

Another year has somehow gone by and it's time to get way out of control for Emmy's party again. I found this place last year when I was researching places and really wanted to use it. That and I REALLY wanted to get her some pink cowgirl boots and a pearl snap shirt(If I'm being honest). Hithcin Post Stables is like a 3 year old heaven. There's bouncy houses, playscapes, pigs,horses, games, a train and stagecoach, and of course, the pink and blue ponies Sugar and Squirt. The kids could just run around and around and do whatever they wanted and basically just wear themselves out!

Here's the money shot right off. Emmy LOVED Sugar and still talks about her.

The most amazing thing I've seen in a while is all of these three and four year old standing here for about 20 minutes patiently waiting for their turn. It was kind of amazing.

Coming in a close second had to be the train. We kept that sucker busy. I have no idea what is so magical about riding around on a train, but they LOVE it. They also have a stagecoach they can ride on that they pull like a wagon. That was a hit too.

Emmy can count this as her best day ever because we made the food all of her favorite snacks. You can see the giant thing of cheese balls in the back of the picture here. It sat in our kitchen for about a week and she would beg for cheese balls every day. I told her she could have as many as she wanted at her party. She took me up on it. Not exaggerating she probably ate about 50 cheese balls AT the two and a half hour party. When you add in fruit snacks, suckers, queso, and PBJs, you can guess who was a TAD strung out. On the way home she told me "I have a LOT of energy." That was about three minutes before she passed out cold. All the familiar faces were there this year along with some new friends from her class at school. She got to slide with all of her besties, Caroline and Bianca.

And of course the cousins were there.
Since we were in an actual stable, we kept the decos to a minimum, with an AWESOME cake and smore's on a stick for favors.

I feel like it was an episode of "My Super Sweet 16 " onMTV because look what Emmy got when she got home. Gandi and SuSu surprised her with her own "Fat Car" as she calls it. She was so excited! She still hasn't quite gotten the concept that she needs to steer AND push the petal, but we'll get there =)

Yeehaw Cowgirl Emmy! Happy Birthday
