Alyssa woke up from her nap the day of her birthday party to the sound of kids arriving to her party. Let’s just say she was very surprised and excited. I’m not sure why she didn’t see it coming with all the decorations we put up in the morning! Maybe it’s because she’s 2 years old! :)
She had all of her favorite friends join her for her party. The girls decorated pink star fairy wands and the boys decorated knight shields.
Her friends and family brought her lots of amazing presents. She opened them throughout the party at her leisure. It worked out well that way because she was able to enjoy each present one at a time. Here she is opening a really cool car from her Grandma Vistercil.
My mom helped her take the cards out and look at them. She was surprisingly interested in the cards.
Here are just a few pictures of some of her gifts:
Fairy-Princess dress up clothes/accessories…she especially loves the necklace.
Baby doll that she has named and continues to call ‘Baby Evan’
One present had these really cute sunglasses and she couldn't wait to try them on.
It also had a very cute shirt that she insisted she try on right then, which actually worked out perfectly because she had smeared a little bit of chocolate from her cupcake on her orange shirt.
Speaking of Cupcakes. I made quite a few cupcakes for her party and piped on a letter for each of the kids names. We had about 10 kids plus parents so it was quite the turnout.
She LOVED blowing out the candles, except we had to sing the song twice to get her to blow out the candles. I had put 2 candles in her cupcake and the flame was too strong so I took one off and then I confused her so we had to sing again to get her to blow out her candle. She didn’t eat much of her cupcake, but really enjoyed using the icing to finger paint the tablecloth! She might be an anti-icing girl when she gets a little older – like her daddy.
She might be an anti-icing girl when she gets a little older – like her daddy. Her best friend Natalie however had no hesitation to eating her cupcake – so hilarious! :) No Hands!
I think she thoroughly enjoyed her birthday party and we want to thank all of her friends for coming to help make her day very special!
