Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

You might be surprised to know that "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" is one of my favorite songs! So it was only fitting that that was the theme for our Achievement Day's party last night. It was so fun!

A few months ago the girls memorized a song and as a reward we let them help plan an activity. They chose a pajama party. We told them that that's what it would be but didn't tell them anything else we had planned. It was a blast!

We let them make their own pizzas, we danced, we played some really fun games, we laughed, we ate chocolate fondue....it was a ball!

I made a playlist with different "teen beat" songs and had it playing when the girls showed up. There were songs from The Jonas Brothers, High School Musical, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lavato and more. You know, girlie songs. The music blared and the girls and I danced like crazy!

Each girl make their own pizza and after dinner we got to the games. We played a game called "the trash can game" (so fun! For directions, check this out), chubby bunny and "what if?" What if is a classic Richardson family game. There are directions to that as well if you click on the link above.

During the trash can game the girls got so excited they were jumping up and down chanting each others names and cheering each time someone found a gift. It was hysterical! They were so loud but I had to say that I was only adding to the noise. It was great!

Chubby Bunny was also hilarious.

Once the games were over we had just enough time to have dessert. We had strawberries, graham crackers, pretzels, bananas, marshmallows and more for them to dip in the chocolate.

This little gal was the life of the party! She danced harder, played harder and enjoyed more than anyone. She is going to be quite the teenager.

Ahhh...I just love these girls!
