My little baby turned "4" I just can't believe it I remember when she was my little chubby baby. Not anymore she is my big girl. This post is entirely way to long but I just like to put lots of pictures to show how much fun we all enjoy for our kiddos birthdays or show I say "I enjoy" =)
This year Sidnee wanted a "Strawberry Shortcake Party" which was really exciting cause its so adorable and we all just loved strawberries.
Lots of love and fun planning went into this fiesta for my little sunshine. Lots of work for this mamma but so worth it in the end.
My mom made this tutu and shirt for Sidnee to wear on her "Big Day" I got strawberry tights and red shoes to go with it and she was set for her attire.
The colors for this party of course were red and pink. I didn't go all out this party I was trying to make it more simple being I just planned a "1st Birthday" so I used red table cloths and slipped on pink bows on the chairs to make it somewhat pretty. The centerpieces I got pails at Michales put strawberries in it and poked a number "4" out the top that I made with my new circuit that my mom got me for Christmas.
For the decor all I did was a couple lanterns and streamers in the middle of the two canopies and called it a day.
The dessert table is always fun so for that I put the beautiful cake I had made, strawberry cookies, candy bars with strawberry shortcake wrappers I got from etsy, red vines, rice krispies, chocolate covered strawberries, chocolate dipped pretzels, and pink lolipops, I tied in all the colors with the desserts. My mom made the strawberry shortcake backdrop- cut pieces of fabric into strips. I used the fabric on centerpieces and around the red vines as well for added decor. I got the letter "S" at marshalls for a good buy, framed her invitation, and got these strawberry tupperware for lolipops at the grocery store. And lastly made the sweets sign with my lovely circuit. I was so in love with it. I think its just the colors that I love that make it so beautiful.
For the kiddos I had a table were they decorated cupcakes and could put strawberry shortcake toppers on them and a cute little box to take them home. A table for coloring strawberries and strawberry shortcake pictures I printed from my computer, and strawberrry shortcake tattoos that my nieces put on the kids. They loved it. And of course we had a jumper for the kiddos to go crazy in.
For food which there is always tons!!!! we served hamburgers, hotdogs, chips, potato salad, fruit salad, and nanchos. I was trying to make it easier on the hubby and cheaper on us for all the people we have however that didn't really work out. We went thru 100 hamburgers and 100 hotdogs man our family can eat. Cooked ourself omg way to much work catering is the way to go let me tell you. However it was so much fun and everyone always enjoys the days with us so its so worth it.
We ended the beautiful night with the kids hitting the pinata and the adults jumping in to for candy haha cake with Sidnee girl and of course outfit change with her strawberry outfit and "4" shirt and doing presents....
Long Day and night but sure lots of fun glad to be over for the year with parties until my next one arrives hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I did....
