This year Gem's birthday falls on the Easter and is the same week we get home from our cruise. As a result, we decided to have her party early, which is March. Since Gem loves the color green, we had a Think Green Party. It was fun coming up with all the decor, food and games. So here's the low down: 
Decor: I found green battery operated votive candles with green lights. We found all kinds of St. Patrick's decor and table ware. There was even a streamer metallic curtain entrance to the rooms. The lighting was really this green. My favorite quote from the night was, "It's so bright in here, I can't hear you!"
Food: green M&M's, pistachios, spearmint leaves, Andes mints, green lollipops, guacamole dip and chips, green apples with a green caramel dip, green deviled eggs, a large green cookie for her "cake", and green punch.

Games: What green character are you? Green Pictionary, Impromptu green skits based on famous green quotes, and a green dice game.
I bought a bunch of green silly string and had the kids attach Gem while singing Happy Birthday to her. It was classic!
Gem declared it the best party yet. I guess I'm doing something right, if they think that the latest is the greatest.
Happy Birthday to my beautiful girl!

Too fun!
So much for Kermit singing "It ain't easy being green." Sounds like quite the good time!
Happy Birthday Jem!!!
