Happy Birthday Celebration #3


When you're a 3 year old little princess, I guess you should have 3 birthday celebrations. Olivia was so excited for her birthday this year, since we were gone for her actual birthday, we decided to let her have a party with her friends after we got home. She had a Princess Tea Party.




We had finger sandwiches, cut in shapes of flowers and butterflies, fruit kabobs(the hit of the party), jello jigglers, chips, and veggie sticks. We served pink lemonade out of her tea service.
The Table








We had a wonderful lunch.

After lunch we painted fingernails and toenail. Lisa and Madi came to help. They did an awesome job.





Olivia and Maddie decided they wanted to paint my fingernails. They both attacked my hands with a different color. Luckily they chose light colors so you couldn't see the paint up to my wrists unless you were looking for it.





After the nails dried, we made a princess craft, and then we had cake and ice cream. I stayed up until 3 AM finishing the cake. I was happy with the way it turned out.



Yep, she's still afraid of fire.

Enjoying the cake and ice cream.


Time for presents.


I couldn't resist putting the wrapping on my head.



Uh hummmm! Is that a Barbie? So it has begun.



Ryan and I had picked out a present for Olivia back in May, but after the bike ride at the Celery Flats, Livvy wanted a bike so bad that we decided to put away her other present until Christmas and we got her a bike. She was in heaven. She loves her birthday bike and we have taken in out on many a bike ride since then. It really was a great thing to do, because she can enjoy the rest of the good weather to ride her bike, and her other present will be perfect at Christmas.

Happy Birthday our little princess.

Olivia wore a permanent track riding her bike around the main level of the house. She is a little speed demon.

I am very impressed with that cake!! And I love all the little girl themed stuff- especially painting the nails!! How fun!!!!!! Livvy looks like she really loves her bike! Poor Weston, he wanted a bike soooooo bad by the end of this summer, but I think we're going to wait until his birthday next April. Livvy really is beautiful, and you can tell she is such a happy little princess!!!! Tell her Happy Birthday from us (and Yoshi ;)

Wow, you really went the extra mile on that party! I've decided I've become a grinch. My two oldest didn't even get parties this year because their gifts were so expensive, I wasn't forking out any more for a party! Looks like Livvy had a fabulouse time, you're a great mom!
