How to host a Monster High Birthday Party

I have a newly minted 10 year old in the house, and she wanted a MONSTER HIGH theme party, with a sleepover of course!

 We ordered special Monster High Kookies by Kel-Cie! Didn't she do a fabulous job?
We had Pink and Blue decorations everywhere to help with ambiance

The Little Sisters tried their best to be included... so we played around with some SCARY photo editing software to make them look the part... except they all are giggling!!

 Then we also had yummy cupcakes... monster High girls still love their cupcakes...

 Now what do 10 year old girls do at a Monster High Themes Birthday party?
They of course try to replicate their favorite doll!
So we had an evening of painting faces and lots of chalk in the hair.
They wouldn't let me take photos of them like this, so you will just have to use your imagination!

Then of course it was Movie time! Which movie?
A Monster High Double Feature of course!

Present time... Guess what the birthday girl received?

Operetta!
Now of course she is planning her Halloween Costume... which monster High Doll to be this year....

Hi! I'm new here...

Let me introduce myself...

I am Tanya, your new momstown mama for Central Alberta. I am the mom of 2 gorgeous girls, and our family is expecting a new little one at the beginning of September, so apparently I am looking to be very busy!

My husband is Paul, aka momstown papa, and he will be posting on here occasionally to give his unique perspective on life in Central Alberta.

I attended my first momstown moms night out last week at East Side Mario's and met a few of you there, and if we weren't formally introduced, I was the very pregnant lady! ha ha. I also attended my first park hopping playdates and met a couple of the ladies there as well. Small turnout, but it was holiday Monday, I hope to see many more of you next week at the Blackfalds Spray Park!

My goal in August is to get the hang of things with LOTS of help from Alison, as well as meet as many of the momstown moms and families as I can. I can't promise that I will remember your names though... but I will get better!

I am also busy working on our 4th birthday party! I am so excited about what we have in store for all the moms and families in Central Alberta that day! We have face painting from Candy Faces, bouncy house from Big Bounce Inflatables, cupcakes from Yummy Custom Cakes, a demo class from Kindermusic Korner and Jo Dumont Fitness Training. Suzanne from First Blush Photography will be wandering around taking pictures of your little ones having a blast, which you can later purchase from an online gallery if you choose. Joanne from Bold Beauty will also be set up with a Little Fingers Little Toes for any little girls who would like their nails done!

I look forward to seeing you around town!
