After the movie the kids made tissue paper flowers and did some coloring pages. Dinner was chicken fajitas with onions and peppers, beef tacos, spanish rice, refried beans (for DH, yuck), baked beans (for everyone else, lol), sweet corn cake and for dessert we had red, white and green cupcakes to represent the Mexican flag. I was going to venture out a bit with dessert but Emily asked for cupcakes and I love my daughter
so cupcakes it was! After dinner the kids played a few rounds of "Donde Esta Donald?" . They took turns hiding Donald around the house for each other. I was going to get a pinata for the night but at $20, I cheaped out 
We are supposed to be saving money for Disney remember? 
So I promised the kids that we would make one this weekend!
)
They enjoyed the food at least. So I think I will give it another try and least the boys will get some createive food.
How fun! Can you tell me how you made the tissue paper flowers? I would love to do that with my Daisy Girl Scout Troop to use as centerpieces for our award ceremony.
You are so creative. I think my daugther and I are going to do a mommy/daugther only trip this year in Oct. for a few days and if we do I will start doing these. We did a Chinese New Year one this year and my daugther had a blast and my sons tolerated it.
So we have had a blast with this the last couple of weeks. Any ideas for a " POFQ Night"? I'm using our PO glasses to fill with fruity drinks for the kids (and banana cabanas for the adults). Think I'll go pick up beads and coins from the party store, but am needing some food ideas that the kids will enjoy.
Thanks!
I will have to look and see when it is on again. We watched part of it last night as the kids had to go to bed before it was over.
But we made the best of it and still had fun. Started off with watching the movie, the kids have been enjoying camping out in the family room while we watch movies lately so they brought down their sleeping bags and pillow pets for the show. During the movie Christian helped Ben do an Alice puzzle and the kids ate some special snacks. We then had dinner, we had chicken sandwiches, pb&j's shaped like butterflies and stars, pasta salad and Cheshire cat smiles aka cantalope slices. While I did the dishes and cleaned up the kids did their craft. Since we were supposed the be outside the kids decorated fans shaped like hearts. Of course we had no need for fans since today was chilly and rainy but thats ok, they liked their craft all the same lol. After the craft we had dessert which was, you guessed it cupcakes Dessert was Cheshire Cat cupcakes which we ate with tea (aka chocolate milk). 
Great night once again Lisa! Love the candy teacups and cupcakes, especially!
