Oh, I bet and Sophie would have so much fun together!!!!! Dressing up, getting into everything! lol!!
Awww, what was the theme for Sophie's party?
Hmmm, you could have a Dolly Parton themed party for your dad!!everyone dress up as Dolly!! Just be sure to invite me!
For Sophie's birthday we took her to Longleat, which is this brilliant safari park about 2 hours from their house. Sophie is a major animal lover and we had only been once before so we decided this would be great for her. We also stayed at a campsite for 2 nights, which had a little farm and the children could help feed the animals and their was a treehouse and bikes for them to play with. And my older sister and grandparents and the dog came too. It was a total surprise for her, Nick and I got there earlier and set everything up, we had 3 tents, a gazebo, table and cooker, it was great. We had an animal theme and we decorated it with banners, animal balloons and leopard print blanket and chair. She loved it. Then on her birthday we went to the safari park in the day and in the evening we had a bbq and had more animal themed party things, it was great.
Heres a few pictures:
. Sophie absolutely loved it though, which is what mattered, and we all had a blast. I did a bit of a themed party for my Mum in the cabin... we decorated the top floor in a cowboy theme with an inflatable cactus and signs and things and then had a cocktail table, it was pretty cool. I think I could really get into these themed parties 
. Oh Dolly Parton would be a great idea, although my Grandad would be very sad to miss it . Sophie loves her so would be only to happy to dress up as her, didn't you have a picture of Hollie like that before?
Oh, I don't think you went overboard at all!!! I think it was fabulous!!!Thanks. It was the first time I had done anything themed so as you can see I went a bit overboard. It was quite funny as those giant elephant and lion balloons I didn't realise how big they were. Nick and I had all the tents and everything in our car as we setting it all up before everyone got there and the when I tried to put the balloons in they wouldn't fit. We had to rearrange everything, Nick was not happy
I must say I love your southern accent. 
Thank you so much!!!! haha Thanks, sometimes I think I sound a little too southern!!heather, your lights look great. MY DH is still hanging ours, as always there were problems.
Thanks MeMom!!
Just saying Hey girl!
Maybe you should change the ADR, Hollie would probably like it better. Too bad they stopped doing the extras at CR.
ariel2007 I love your animal theme party. Everything is so cute from the plates, to the balloons and confetti. Where did you find the ketchup & mustard pouches? You even had decorative grass in the background. I love the monkey cake!! How very cool to have the safari visit part of the bday. You should be happy with your efforts.
Awww, thanks!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOLLIE
I hope she has a wonderful birthday. And I hope the party goes well, I cant wait to see the pictures.
