Sydney's 'Knight' 4th Birthday

We had a fabulous knight birthday party for Sydney. All the kids came decked out in their knight tunics I made them, ready for fun.

We did really simple decorations. I made a flag banner to go around the room, gold plates for our pizza, & crowns for everyone.


To entertain the kiddos Scott & I made swords & shields out of cardboard (still around from moving). We painted them white then gave the kids markers & jewels to decorate them. They had a blast!


We also made a castle in her bedroom out of some large cardboard boxes. The kids had a really great time running around & playing in it (&, yes, it's still up in her room).

We had so many great people come & celebrate with us. Thanks to everyone for coming & being so much fun- you made Sydney's 4th birthday a great one!

    Awesome party! I see Papa John's spinach pizza - so yum! Our PJ's closed a couple of months ago and I miss it so much!
