Pirates and Pixies!

Katelyn attended her first "themed" birthday party this past Sunday! Little Molly Hill turned three, and her party theme was "Pirates and Pixies!" It was so much fun! You could dress up as a pirate or pixie, and although we think Katelyn is cute in whatever she wears, we opted for the pixie look! So, for those of you who are looking for a cute party idea, you will love this! Upon arrival, Katelyn was greeted by a "real live" fairy and pirate. Not only did she have her picture made with the fairy (see below), she was given a list of fairy names to choose from! The nametag she chose said "Sugar Plum." Definitely a fitting name for such a sweet girl! Other party highlights included: A wand decorating station complete with glitter and sequins; a cupcake decorating station complete with homeade cupcakes, jelly beans and gumdrops; a face painting station...I could go on and on. Last but not least, party favors included pirate hats and fairy dust necklaces (including your very own little vile of "fairy dust"). I think it goes without saying that my friend Dangela (Molly's mom) is soooooo talented and creative when it comes to events like these! We were honored to be a part of it! So to sum it all up.....

Pixie skirt from a local resale shop: $5
Pixie wings borrowed from a playmate: Free
Your daughter being the cutest pixie at the party: Priceless

Eat your heart out Tinkerbell!



P.S. For those of you wondering about the Mom Monday update for today...let me assure you that no news is good news! My mom is doing great, and we look forward to seeing her (and the rest of my family!) this weekend for Easter and a family celebration of my dad's 60th birthday!
