Yesterday was the big day Sadie has been waiting for for weeks! Her 4th birthday party in Candyland! Of course, once again, Mommy went a little overboard with all the preparations, decorations, candy and goodies but hey...when you're a party planner for a living you can't just turn it off...especially when planning your little girl's birthday! As much work as it was to put it all together, it was worth every minute to see the smile on Sadie's face all day long. She had the time of her life with all her friends, old and new, and we got to invite our friends and neighbors over for our first official party. It was a fantastic day!
Mommy, Sadie and Daddy before the party
The candy bar for the Candyland birthday
Sadie's goodies for all her guests
Sadie's GIANT cupcake with pink frosting of course
Sadie's cupcake pinata (she didn't quite understand that this pinata was the kind you just pull on the strings until it opens instead of wacking it with a bat. A little safer for the little ones but as I found out...not as much fun!)
All the kids getting ready to pull a string on the pinata
Our attempts as trying to get a picture of all Sadie's little friends...obviously it didn't work too well!
Papa and Cooper enjoying the party
Even though it was his sisters party, Coop had a blast in the bounce house!
All the parents chit-chatting awaySo, one of Sadie's favorite presents was a camera from Grandma and Granddad. It was a kids version (with lots of padding for when it gets dropped) but really takes pictures she can download to the computer and do funny things too. So, needless to say, it didn't leave her hot little hands all night and she had quite a fun time taking pictures. As I looked through the ones Curtis downloaded, I found two that I just couldn't resist sharing.....
