Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches + Sky Lanterns

Five is my new favorite age. Also, how did this happen? I swear just yesterday she was a baby. 
We had by far my favorite birthday party, homemade ice cream sandwich bar + 30 sky lanterns.

    What a magical way to celebrate a birthday! I love the idea of an ice cream sandwich bar for dessert.

    I love ice-cream sandwiches.

    Those lanterns are so awesome. I think I need to bring some to the beach next month.

    Ps I'm in for Thursday night. I'm excited.

    What a cute birthday party! I bet she's a big fan of Tangled (the movie).

    My cousin had those lanterns at her wedding, but hers didn't go as well as it looks like yours did! Let's just say there was a lot of screaming (scared screaming) and at one point I almost got hit from behind by one, I was done after that (we left)!
  6. megan and melissa :
    Can I ask where you bought the lanterns? These would be perfect for an event that I am planning.
    Thanks!
    xoxo, Meg

  12. banananutmeg :
    ps-how did you light them? with a match or did you use something with a larger flame?

    This is super cool! What a great idea.

    I just bought a bunch after reading your post. I'm thinking it will be a fun end of summer event with my friends and their kids the weekend before school starts.

    A Summer Send-Off!

    Thanks for sharing and Happy Birthday to your big girl Hattie!
