Farewell Dinner & Mia's Pre-Birthday Celebration

Last Friday we had a dinner for The Stensgard family and a pre-birthday celebration for Mia. It was a great dinner party. We've decided to keep doing these dinners every month--hopefully!
Anyway, this dinner was at the Brown's (Keith, Luisa, and baby Camila) house. We went there after Cheer class. We all brought an entree, side, salad, or desert. I love potluck dinners because it's like a buffet!! Anyway, all the food was delicious. Ericka made one of her gorgeous cakes for Mia. It was a 2 tiered cake--absolutely too much cake. But it was really good. Since Mia's birthday theme is a bumblebee, she made a cake with all kinds of bugs and with the bumblebee at the top. Super adorable cake! Thank you Ericka!

Moving on... our girls played together, while the grown ups mingled and ate. We ate so much!! we had wine, beer, and sodas. At some point we got the girls together and sang "Happy Birthday" to Mia! It was cute to see all the girls together! And Mia got practice for her birthday party! Anyway, the night continued and we enjoyed ourselves. Oh and we also played a game--which turned out to be super fun! Although none of us can draw, we had a bl st with Pictionary! It was a fun night--but of course it had to come to an end. We had to say our goodbyes to the Stensgard family. We will miss you so much and we cannot wait to have you back in the states again!

This is the cake...Candids of everyone...
All our girls, playing, torturing each other, or being tortured (by my girls)!
Singing "Happy Birthday to Mia!"
