Kaylee's 4th Birthday

WOW! My little Kaylee is 4 years old! And Kaylee LOVES horses. So, when I asked her what kind of theme she wanted for her birthday party, she didn't hesitate one second before shouting out... "I wanna horse party mom!" So, a horse party is what she got! Here is the rundown.


My mom came to spend a few days with Kaylee for her birthday. It was a big help to have her here. I was able to actually get things done! So, below is my mom, me, and Kaylee in front of the "Horse Cake".I printed off horse shoes. My mom and Kaylee colored them and then we taped them to the ground outside coming up the steps, and on the floor. The kids really liked that detail.The first thing we did while we were waiting for all the kids to show up was a follow the leader, "horse style". Grandma Basha bought her a stick horse and they all took turns being the horse and running as fast as they could around the house! That was so fun to watch.Next, we played "Pin the Tail on the Horse". I made each child a tail out of hairy looking yarn, so it doubled as a tail they could wear later. Below: Kaylee trying to pin her tail on the horse. She did very well. Winner: It was a tie between her and our next door neighbor Kenyon.
Here is the group! Left to right: Kaylee, Miles Wilson, Cameron Rasmussen, Ayden West, Avery Mecham, Claire West, Cruz Schempp, Mara Schempp, and Kenyon Schempp.
(minus a few friends)The next game was "Pony, Pony, Horse".
AKA: "Duck, Duck, Goose"Here are some of the decor. Horse tack came from Grandpa Keith and Shadow the horse

I know it was a lot of pics... but isn't that the only reason you are still reading? :)
Happy Birthday Kaylee! Hope you had a fun time!
