A pioneer birthday party for Cyan!
Cyan's Pioneer birthday party went smashingly well!
She and I put together a ton of good old fashioned fun. Tin can telephones, tin can stilts, chickens running in the yard, feed sack races, churning butter, and dancing to fiddle music were our main attractions.
Fiddle music and square dancing came next:
The favors were adorable little baking kits to make a set of cornbread muffins, cute muffin papers, and butter that we made during the party.
Our bed quilts and roses from the garden mixed with wildflowers from the side of the road were our only decorations and warm pie strait from the oven was served instead of cake (at the birthday girl's request) and we all enjoyed homemade whipping cream along with it.
It was an amazing party! And a perfect celebration of my daughters 9th year on this beautiful planet.

Pure genius, I tell you!
I'm totally stealing this and using it for my own purposes (and giving you credit, of course.) xoxo :-)
