How To Throw a Proper Girl Party

Step 1
Call a few of your best gal pals and invite them over for a late night party.
Little brothers can be included if their father and older brother are away on scout camp, but only if they are cute and charming.
Step 2
Set up a nail salon in your bedroom.
The more sparkly the nail polish--the better!  Glow in the dark adds a nice touch as well.
Be sure to crack a window because the fumes from that much nail polish can be intense.
Step 3
Serve pizza and soda to the lovely ladies, who will be sure to all use their best manners.  There will be no raucous burping.  This is perhaps the main difference from an all boys gathering.
 
Step 4
Let the girls enjoy the cool evenings and play outdoor games.  The piggy back race is fun for the older and younger girls.
For real ease of party planning, invite girls of many different ages so the younger girls will thrill at the attention from older girls and the older girls cherish having little girls to play with and mother.  You won't really have to do anything.
Step 5
Freeze dance.  It never gets old.  Need I say more?
 
Once again, I must reiterate, little brothers are very welcome to a proper girl party so long as they are cutie little charmers.

Step 6
I don't have a picture, but it goes without saying that treats and a movie are in order when it gets dark outside and they've exhausted their energy. 

Step 7
Don't forget moms need a bit of late night socializing as well.  Naomi was with us.  Then when the parents came to pick up their girls it was great fun to chat for a while.  The girls were more than happy to keep playing while we visited.

There are many variation on a theme of "Girl Party", but this one was highly successful and can be easily replicated.  Girls are such fun!

Thanks again for inviting Isabelle. She had a BLAST! She hasn't stopped talking about her glow in the dark nail polish and hanging out with the older girls!
