Saige's Third Birthday Party

We could not decide on what to do for Saige's birthday. Park? Place? Home? It always falls on Mother's Day weekend and with Aaron's job that makes things tricky. We also put the girls in t-ball this year, which I didn't think mattered since the games are so short and so few but it was right smack in the middle of her birthday month. Grr...the last few years we did a smaller party for her but this year we decided to invite her friends and make it a party. I laughed at one point and told Aaron that we (I) have done too much work for a three year old. We tried to keep the guest list to people that she knows well and interacts with on a regular basis...and even that added up :) We are so blessed to have so many wonderful friends and family in our lives that love and care for our kids.

Saige is obsessed with the color pink and all things girly. A friend of mine suggested to have a Pinkalicious birthday party. I asked Saige and she was so excited to have that as her theme. We got a pinkalicious cake...



I made marshmallow pops for the table, we had pink lemonade, a fruit tray, pizza, and salad. I set up the cake table with glass containers of pink candy.








I made a "craft table" with borrowed flowers and chalkboard stickers and colored chalk. We also added streamers and balloons and Aaron wanted the "extra" streamers. :) We did star cookies as the party favor.









We got a bounce house and snow cone machine for the birthday party. The kids basically stayed outside the whole time. We sang Happy Birthday, ate cake and opened gifts. It was a wonderful day! Saige got the GIRLY gifts I have ever seen...tons of purses, lip gloss, baby stuff, shoes and tutu skirts. As I type this out the girls have eye shadow and lip gloss and are playing beauty shop! :)














and one of our little family!
