Party like a 5 year old

We have been planning this fun birthday party for our favorite five year old for months! The best part was we joined with two of Meredith's friends, who were both in her class and on her soccer team so that we could have it at this great pool not far from our house - it has a super fun splash pool for little ones, a lazy river, and a really big slide for bigger kids. It was the perfect place to have it and it was so much fun to celebrate with these two little girls that Meredith has so enjoyed spending time with!
Meredith, Allison, and Kelsey - the birthday girls! I had fun picking up these identical cakes at Costco - got lots of "TRIPLETS?" questions and looks.
Daddy and Meredith had lots of fun floating the lazy river and splashing in the big pool
The big girls were very ready for cake - the cakes were also ready - can you tell that Meredith's chocolate cake had turned into a molten lava cake? It was HOT out there and it was a good thing we cut the cake when we did!
Making her wish! She told us later she wished for a pool like this one closer to our house. Which is funny because this place is probably only 5 miles from us (if even that). Guess when you are a heading to your 5 year old birthday party that 5 miles takes forever!
Luckily no one cared that the cake was melty - probably just made it tastier!
How could I refuse a slide down the slide with the birthday girl?
So fun!
