Tinkerbell Party and Amy's Family Shower

Kenzie had a small party with some friends this year. She wanted a Tinkerbell party and it turned out to be a lot of fun to plan! Below is a special treasure chest that Tinkerbell sent just for this special four-year-old's birthday party!When our guests arrived we colored and stickered some Tinkerbell pictures.
Lucy was dressed in a Tinkerbell costume... it was so cute!
Then we made Tinkerbell candy necklaces... Jamie wasn't there to supervise Liv and she kinda went nuts shoveling as much sugar in her mouth as she could before Amy intervened!
Elise and her dear mama, Shana.
Memom and Hannah helping Ella and Alaythia.
The two-year-old's chowing down on their necklaces...
Then we went on a fairy hunt. We had heard that sometimes fairies come to birthday parties and leave little fairy dust trails for the little girls to follow... well wouldn't you know that Tinkerbell herself came to our party and left us a little trail to follow!?!

Picking up fairy dust...

What is this treasure box we found??

It held all their goody bags and then we found out that Tinkerbell left us a pinata too! We had to go fill our bags!
Please notice the wood thing that Jake got on an extension ladder to nail up in our tree! We have no branches to hang a pinata from, so he improvised... and with him, nothing can be a small deal, can it?



Present time!
Then it was time to eat lunch and decorate our own cupcakes!
Singing Happy Birthday the first time... I forgot about a candle on the cupcake so we had to sing again!
Our four-year-old... I swear I just held that baby in my arms for the first time yesterday... where did four years go?



>Love this!

Then 2 hours later we headed over to my sister's wonderful surprise baby shower! She was so surprised she didn't even shower first!!



Mr. Di had all sorts of special gifts to give his grandson... the first being his 1st piggy bank...
and the last being a Ralph Lauren Onesie so he can be just like his grandpa!
Amy and our gorgeous cousin, Kristie!
My grandmother is so much fun! She is 71-years-young and has more energy then I do! Here she is teaching Kenzie how to hop like in a sack race!
Kenzie loves Mommom!
And then to end a perfect birthday... we turned off the lights on them while they were in the bath and threw glow sticks in the tub!! The LOVED it!! I think we will have to make birthday baths with glow sticks a birthday tradition... until they are about 6 I guess! Haha... it's going too fast!!! Trying to savor and enjoy every moment!!
