Kalea wanted to have her party at a spa for kids. It was ridiculously expensive though, so we decided to have one at home. I must say it was a lot of pressure. 9 year old girls are more particular than 4 year olds or something. I'm so happy to say that it was a total success. We had a fingernail polish/hot potato game to start, then we made fluffy flip flops, then had pedicures, then a pinata, presents, and finally, cake and ice cream. She had 9 girls there, and they were all really sweet and made her party a lot of fun.
This is my friend Jill Becko. She and her daughter Brigitte came early and helped me get ready, what a sweetheart. She even vacuumed and washed dishes! She calls Jackson her "boyfriend" to which he blushes every time.
All that was on Jett's mind was how he could get into that water!
Tom was our pedicure spa water changer. 10 changes in all, and not one complaint or eye roll. What a good dad!
These are the craft we made...fluffy flip flops. They were a hit. It's great because it doubled as the party favor. 
The 8 1/2 months preggo pedicurist. Besides a few drops of pink nail polish on the carpet, the pedicures went over fabulously.
Cousin Bekah soaking her tired feet back to youthful rejuvenation at the Fobert spa!
And the other of the 3 musketeer girl cousins. What a blessing for Kalea to have girl cousins her age to grow up with. 2 here and 1 in CA.
My mom in the background taking a turn changing the water. She is always present at our family events and makes them easier and happier. Gotta love moms/nanas!

You're a girl after my own heart! I love kiddie at home parties! FYI, scrub your carpet with shaving cream, then rinse with hot water and the nail polish will be no more. Amazing, but true. I'm speaking from experience.
So fun! What great ideas! Happy birthday to Kalea!
