Whats a good "theme" for a 14 year old girl's birthday?!


Question: Whats a good "theme" for a 14 year old girl's birthday!?
Hi!. My birthday's the 23rd of this month, and my dad's is the 20th!. We usually have a mixed birthday with my family - which is totally fun! (: But this year, I want to invite a couple friends over too!. So I have a few questions, "theme" related!.
[Note- in the past, my themes were like!.!.!. based off moves, like Over the Hedge or Madagascar!.]

First, for the family party, I usually get napkins and tablecloths with something cute on it - like, as said before, move-based!. Any ideas!?
also, I usually spice up my birthday "list" alot, by making it creative!. Last year, I made my brother's into a newspaper article; I'm super lost for my own though! Help!?

Second, for the friend party, should it be themed!? Or is a no-theme party just as fun!? Probably a sleepover, with snacks and such; maybe going to the lake!. also - any fun ways to right invitations!? Like on a beach ball!?

Thanks sooo much!!
I dont wish to spend alot of money, but ANY help you could give me is fantastic!!
Thanks!

Answers:
Hmm!. Seems you like movies; have you seen anything recently you really liked!? Something that you could possibly tie-in to both your family's party and your friend's get-together/sleepover!? (That'd save a bit for you, with only one theme to work with!.)

Of course, you could always theme-up your family shindig and leave your friends party as a chill lakeside get-together with a cupcake-cake (easily made -- just frost all of the cupcakes at the same time so they stick together -- or bought from your supermarket)!.

Or, you could combine the two, with a themed family party that kinda bleeds into your friends party!. With a beachy-type party, you could do a Mama Mia! theme, with folks dressing up in 80's retro (easily bought at thrift stores) when they're not in bathing suits, ABBA and other retro-y music (*someone's* gotta have ABBA cd's, or songs on an mp3 player you could jack into), Greek style grilling (lemon juice, oregano, salt, pepper & olive oil is a cheap and tasty marinade; tomato/cuke salad, grilled potatoes and orzo/pasta salad could work and keep the cost low, look up other recipes if you need more ideas) and a cake/cupcake cake decorated to look like a beach (or just covered in "glitter" sprinkles)!.!.!.!.

Have fun, and Happy Birthday to you both!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
