Butterfly painting party

This past weekend my niece Morgan, who recently turned 5, had a butterfly-themed birthday party with her little girlfriends. My cousin Jessie is opening Paint the Towne in August in Wichita and Morgan's birthday was the very first Paint the Towne party.
Each child was provided with an apron, easel, canvas, paints and brushes.


The girls awaiting the other guests to arrive.


Lily greeted me with a big smile and a lot of hugs.


My niece Breyya ready to start painting.


When I first met Lily she was very shy around me and didn't really want her picture taken. Recently she's let me into her little world, and I am loving it. She has such a big personality it's so fun to experience that with her.


Jessie starting the painting lesson. The kids are painting the pink butterfly as seen in the picture above her head. The kids ranged in ages from 3 to 9 and every one listened intently for each step.


Audrey following directions and held up her paintbrush.








There were adults walking around to help guide the kids through the process, but the main goal was to have fun and let the kids explore through painting.




Izzy smiling for me.


After painting it was treat time. Jen made yummy butterfly cupcakes, sandwiches and rice crispy treats.





Morgan was very excited about opening all of her presents.

The finished project by all the girls.
