Yesterday we had a beautiful, enchanted unicorn birthday party at Marilla Park! Morgan chose the theme months ago and has been waiting with baited breath for the party to finally arrive. 
Our friends at Sabbies Sweeties made the cake and cupcakes to really make the party complete. I don't think I've ever eaten a more delicious cake, except maybe our wedding cake :)
The main party attraction was a unicorn pinata, which all the kids LOVED. Each kid had three turns whacking the heck out of the pinata, and we still had to rely on Aunt Lola and some muscle power to break it open. We also had to hire an engineer to hang the silly thing (see below)
Morgan had a special goblet to drink her Kool-Aid from. She hasn't let it go since.
Morgan had 16 of her friends at the party, which was just enough to drive Mama to the brink of craziness. But it was fun. In between decorating their own unicorn horns (sugar cones, icing, and sprinkles in all different colors) and the pinata the kids kept busy playing tag and running off some of the sugar between the trees of the park.

Opening more giftsThe birthday girl, who turns 5 on Thursday, made out like a bandit. We have a house full of Barbies, My Little Ponies, make-your-own crafts, and other sundry items. She had a great day and fell asleep quickly that evening. I can't believe she's going to be five in a few short days. My how time has flown by. But I must admit that I am glad party planning/party throwing is over for another 365 days or so.
