For Josie's birthday this year, she wanted a sleepover. So we invited some girls from her class and her after school care. The girls arrived on Friday night at 6 p.m. We had pizza, played games, played dress up, made ice cream sandwiches, opened presents, painted our nails, jumped on the trampoline, did sidewalk caulk on the driveway and started watching a movie at midnight. Needless to say by 1 a.m. I was ready for bed (actually I was ready at 10) and there were still 2 girls awake. I let them know I was heading to bed and to wake me if they needed anything. At 7:30 a.m. I was awakened by whispering and giggling (oh how I remember those days) and 3 were up and ready for the day. We had donuts for breakfast and played some more until parents arrived. Overall, it was a huge success and Josie had a great time! I'm still undecided on whether I want to do it again, although the other day Josie mentioned she wanted to have a sleepover for her birthday next year!:)
