For Livie's birthday, she picked a PINKALICIOUS party. If you have not read the "Pinkalicious" books, you need to! They are super cute! We had a really good time for her party.
First, the girls colored wood cupcakes Livie picked out. I thought these would only entertain for a few minutes, however, the girls all loved it!

Next we opened up presents. Livie got lots of fun things. Her favorite came from Amy, Derek, Allee and Pierce; it is Twilight Turtle which she named Dude (yes, from Finding Nemo. But she didn't like Crush, so she decided he should be Dude.) Dave and I gave Livie her first pair of tap shoes and I made her birthday outfit.
Of course we had cupcakes (again, read the book if you haven't!) Livie was super excited about having candles on her cake, but unfortunately she was not able to blow them out. She talked about it for the next week that she didn't get to blow out her candles.
Liv helped me make the cupcakes. They were pink lemonade ones. She helped me put the food coloring in, so they were neon pink!
The last thing we did was this cupcake pinata. Wow! It was a big hit! Livie picked out all the candy to put inside it . . . candy bracelets, rings and lipstick, ring pops, laffy taffy and princess wands.
I can't believe my baby is now 3! It has been the most wonderful 3 years. She makes me so happy and we have a great time together. I am so grateful we have been given such a sweet spirit in our family.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLIVIA!
