When Nora was born exactly a week away from Christmas, I vowed I would keep her Birthday and Christmas separate for her. Today our sweet Nora turned 4 years old! We've had such a fun ride being her parents. Thank you Nora for being an awesome daughter. We sure love you! Yesterday we celebrated Nora's big day by having a Pinkalicious Party. One of her favorite books is "Pinkalicious" by Victoria and Elizabeth Kann, which we made into a party. It was so much fun planning and preparing for it because Nora had just as much fun as I did getting things ready. Here are some pics of her Pinkalicious party:
 |
| Nora showing off her cute Pinkalicious outfit Mommy made. She asked all her party guests to wear PINK (boys could wear Red, a deeper shade of pink of course!) |
 |
| Nora and Mommy being Pinkalicious together. Could this child be any HAPPIER? |
 |
| The decorations were so fun to do/make. This party banner I used up a bunch of pink fabric scraps I had (some left over from Nora's skirt). I can even use it for baby showers too. |
 |
| Instead of party hats, the girls got pink hair bows and the boys got to wear bow ties. They all looked so adorable. |
 |
| More fun decorations and Pink treats. Nora and I sat over the big bulk bin at Winco and picked out all the pink colored taffy's and caramels. Anything for a pink party eh? |
 |
| Found this great balloon to go with the theme. |
 |
| This was the party favor cake. Each slice was full of pink goodies and treats for the kids to take home with a thank you note on top. |
 |
| The spread. It was MUCH easier to find pink sweet things to eat vs. heathy ones. We came up with pink yogurt, purple grapes and ham roll-ups for the healthier choices. |
 |
| Here's some of the sweet food we had. Pink wafer cookies and pink marshmallows dipped in chocolate and crushed graham cracker crumbs. |
 |
| Pink Magic Fairy Wands |
 |
| Raspberry Pink Lemonade. Simple and so good. |
 |
| I tried to mimic the cupcakes from the book. Used a red gumdrop instead of a cherry (cheaper). |
 |
| Pinkalicious Cake! I can't believe she's already 4! |
 |
| Waiting so patiently for the party to begin... |
 |
| We started the party by reading the book Pinkalicious. Dave is such a great story reader. |
 |
| Then we cracked open a cupcake Pinata. |
 |
| The Pinkalcious group. Say Cheese! |
 |
| We Danced... Strat was by far the entertainment on the dance floor. He would sway back and forth to the music, then stop and scowl when we starting laughing at him. |
 |
| Make a wish and blow out the candles Nora girl. |
 |
| Opening presents.... Please take notice of her buddy Christian's shirt... It says "Tough guys wear PINK!" Love it, so perfect! |
 |
| Such a cutie! Happy Birthday Nora! We sure love you! |
