Tangled

Yesterday was Olivia's Tangled party.
I'm not sure which of us was more excited :)
Olivia and I both woke up super giddy and put up all the decorations we'd worked on together throughout the week.
The theme was magical, the weather was ideal, and my little mama was beautiful. All in all it was a lovely party.
The Prep
Here's a peek at the goodie bags:
they were paper bag "lanterns" with lights, coloring sheets, flower clips, water colors, and a "Pascal" tongue.
The kiddos helped me cut out triangles and suns all week long!
This was "Town Square"
Dance and Draw in Town Square
(with the Tangled Sountrack of course)
Decorate Your "Lanterns"
Test Your Frying Pan Skills
Climb Rapunzel's Tower
Party Time
Levi with his silly shorts:)
Super artsy Mia and Aidyn
BFFs Leilani and Naomi
The gang
Kolbs and Kinliegh with their Pascal tongues
"Frying Pans...who knew?"
The cake...
1st cake I've ever purchased.
Gotta admitt it was kinda nice not to fuss over food:)

My happy girl!
See this squeeze?
Yes it was all worth it!

Some "Bunny"s Turning 1 !

Here's Naomi's party...complete with bunny cupcakes, an egg hunt, and lots of cousin fun!
Next year I will choose NOT to paint my kitchen the day I throw a party. Its a good thing the weather was gorgeous so we could let the paint dry.
(I will post more on that when my project is complete...let's just say that Rosie is AWESOME!)
After the party mom and dad Lawton treated us all to dinner at Alicia's...it was divine.
I almost felt like it was MY birthday:)

Birthday Girl

Dearest Naomi-
I can hardly believe its been 12 months since I first held you in my arms. I suppose there's just something about being #3 that makes time go by much too fast. You are my baby that taught me to love the baby stage. You taught me to let things go and just enjoy things, knowinging that all too soon you'd wouldn't be a baby any longer. You adore your siblings and they adore you. You really do complete our little family.
A few funny things about you are:
-you think its hillarious to unfold and "swim" in laundry
-you could take baths all day long
-you insist on feeding yourself
-you must eat if anyone else in the room is eating
-you have 10 teeth already!
-you can say "uh-oh" "mama" and "dada"
-you click your tongue and make kissy noises
-you talk to animals
-you prefer to army crawl
-you can dance to any beat
We love you so much!!!!
Happy Birthday N'omers!
love mama
