Little Mermaid & Mairin

Since her recital, Mairin has really loved Ariel.  When we decided to do a small party for her at the house this year, I stumbled upon a company here in Columbus that has every character under the sun to rent and entertain at parties.  I showed Mairin the website and she automatically chose Ariel (she even trumped Elsa)!  We invited a handful of friends, ordered some pizza and were ready to party.  Unfortunately, it stormed during the party hours so we had to move everything into the basement but the kids weren't bothered by it and everyone had a great time.

Ariel entertained them for the first hour with songs, dances, a craft and princess training before heading out.  After her departure, we had lunch, played Pin the Tail on the Mermaid, opened gifts and had cupcakes for dessert.  It was a whirlwind but all worth it to see her so happy. 

The boys were lurking around the entire time and decided to dress up at one point to try to blend into the party a little better.  They were kicked out eventually for being too loud and crazy.
