Diya's 4th Birthday!! Rockstar Party!!!

I just saw this as a "draft"... I never posted it!! oops!

Diya is 4!  I posted these pics on Facebook, but I wanted to make sure I did a blog post on her birthday too :)   

Diya wanted a fun Rockstar party!  When everyone got there, they got Rockstar Supplies....  Colored Hair, Bling Rings, Headphone Mics, Glitter "tattoos" (sticker), and Silly Bands :)

 Here are the girls getting decked out :) 

 Diya and Zora :)

 We played some Rockstar games.... like "Rockstar Says" & "Follow the Rockstar"

 ... and "PopRock"

 Poprock is what we called Diya before she was born :)

 My little Birthday Rockstar!!!!

 Even the guys had fun :)

It was a fun birthday :)

Here's a short Video:

Aashini is SIX!!!

 We had a small birthday party for Aashini's Sixth Birthday :) Aashini LOVES bugs!!!  So.... we had a BUG PARTY!!!!!!

We played "Scary Butterfly" (Hot Potato) :)

 My kids hadn't played that game before... Diya thought it was the best game EVER! haha!

 We did bug relay races... :)

 We had the party at a public park, so we had a few on-lookers :)

 Our Buggy Friends :)

 We took the little caterpillars and made them into cocoons ;)

 They make great Cocoons :)

 Then they busted out and turned into butterflies :)

 They made their own caterpillars too :)

 The finished products :)

 Cake Time!  The cake frosting was a MESS!  The cake looked horrible! haha!  Aashini liked it though, so that's all that matters :)

 CAKE!

 All of the kids had magnifying glasses and we had a clear bag full of bugs that they could look at... It got dark really early that night, so we used the light on my phone so that they could see the bugs! haha!  Here's Deepa holding my phone :) haha!

Aashini is now SIX!  Such a big girl! :)

Retro Post - Princess Party! (Diya 2, Aashini 4)

This post is over a year late....Last year we had a joint Birthday Party with our girls and our friend's girls.  The day we had the party was the day that my Meniere's Disease began.... Many things got pushed aside with my lack of "non-dizzy time"... and this blog post was one of them!  

So... better late than never!  here it is!

Our girls have November birthdays and our friend's girls have October and December birthdays... They were turning 1, 2, 3 & 4!!!  So... we thought we'd have a joint Birthday Party :)   Our girls all love anything Princess... so we had a princess party!  

Starting with a little tea party time...

Aashini was loving it!

Diya was loving it as well!!

We did a little "Pin the kiss on the frog" :)

We played some fun games :)

...Lots of fun games!   

Diya had a few "It's my Party and I'll Cry if I want to - moments"

...Playing the Princess and the Pea game...

You had to lay on the pillows and guess which pillow had the pea (green tennis ball) under it :)

Aashini was loving it!

Diya was super excited about "food time" :)

Here are the kiddos eating their food :)

Here's the awesome Birthday Cake!  (Made by Karen) :)

Diya was a little emotional on this birthday :)  Poor thing!

I think Aashini looks cute in this picture :)

Here are the Birthday girls!!

Chowin' down on Birthday Cake!

They had a super fun birthday party!

Diya's 3rd Birthday!!!

 On November 26th, Diya turned THREE!!!  I can't believe she's three! :)   On Thanksgiving we had a get together with our friends, so we did a Birthday celebration while we were there :)   Here's Diya's Cake  :)  (Diya loves Chocolate and GEMS - our version of M&Ms :))

 I never got a great picture... but here's Diya waiting for her cake!

 Everyone singing for her :)

 .... blowing out her candles :)

 As per "South Asian Style", she cut the first piece of cake :)

 Diya LOVES chocolate!!!

 Another South Asian tradition that we love is giving gifts to your friends on your birthday.  Diya loved giving gifts to her friends :) It makes your birthday a lot more fun to celebrate your friends on your birthday :)  Fun idea!

 That Saturday they had a birthday party at her school for the kids with November birthdays.  

 She LOVED it :) 

 Here's Diya with her teacher :)

 Here's Diya with one of her fellow November Birthday buddies.  This girl is in her class but I think is a year older than her (and everyone else in the class!) :)  They are good buddies though :)

 Diya had a good birthday! :)

If you want to go back at look at previous birthday posts... here ya go!
