Then on Sunday we had a MARIO PARTY. It was great, Papa dressed up as Luigi and a bunch of the adults had Mario shirts. Maggie cried when we put her in a Mario shirt so she wore a rainbow dress and we said she had gotten an invincibility star, like when Mario flashes rainbow colors in the game. Or else we said she was the Rainbow Road course from Mario Kart. Bridget got lots of Mario goodies and new reading/chapter books so she can keep working on her library minutes. We had flags and gold stars hanging everywhere with felt Mario characters that my Mom and I made. There were Mario decorations on the tables, some were candy tins from Hot Topic and red foil star table thingies from the Dollar Store. Also from the Dollar Store were also the square boxes that I painted yellow then put question marks on them like from the game. Those held the goodies for the kids (which I forgot to hand out at the end, Doh!) which were mini swirl lollipops, old fashioned candy sticks, scented bubbles and of course fake mustaches. I have a ton of the mustaches left over because I ordered 2 dozen not realizing it was 2 dozen packets with 3 mustaches to a pack! Bridget wanted vanilla/vanilla cupcakes and that's what I made, topped with sprinkles and Mario character toppers. Bridget said she had a great Birthday and wants a Mario Birthday for the rest of her life. We'll see what she says next year......
