This year, Sims had a low-key birthday party. Nothing like last year. This was kind of our reset button, I guess. The party was at our house, and we invited only family and close friends. It was low stress and easy going. I thought it was great, and Sims loved it as much as any other birthday party he's had. Win - win!
Sims' only request was for there to be Oreos, and he wanted them where he could reach them. In other words, he wanted to be able to eat them without getting permission. We were fine with that. We even made Oreo butter cream frosting for the chocolate cupcakes. Sims loves the Cars movie, so we used Cars themed plates and napkins. He was thrilled.
The bubble machine was a hit, as usual.
The weather was nice, so we enjoyed watching the kids play outside. It was a wonderful day! I can't believe Sims is 6 years old now. Wow!
