Let's party like a 3 year old!

Since Mya's birthday fell on Easter we held off on the huge celebration for the following weekend. I'm all about dragging out birthday's for as long as possible and enjoy dragging out the kids too! Makes them feel extra extra special which I LOVE!
We had a party at my parents house, like we always do since we have no space at our place, plus the girls are extra comfortable there too, which is good.  I friggin LOVE getting all ready for their parties and decorating and just all that fun stuff that comes along with it.  Now that Mya is old enough to voice the kinda party she wants I wanted to make it what she wanted (no worries I still have Ashley to do my own thang for, lol).  I asked her and she kept going back and forth from Beauty and the Beast and Hello Kitty.  After she said Beauty and the Beast a few times, I went with it.  Of course like a week before the party she came out with Strawberry Shortcake, whatever.  She loved it and I loved doing it.  Here are some of the decoartions.
I made cake pops and smore pops, YUMM!!!!! 
These were the favors.  We always do a cut out sugar cookie.  It's like my moms trademark, lol!  She got this princess crown cookie cutter around Mya's 1st birthday.  When we decided on Beauty and the Beast, we finally got to whip this cutter out to use!  YAY!!!  Decorated by yours truly, RYAN BEA!  He's the man!
I made these little wands for the kids.  That I totally forgot to give out till people were leaving.
Some of the pics from her previous birthday parties that I can pull out at these shindigs.  I also made ones for this year too that I didn't snap pics of. 
My little princess.
Posing, I tell her to pose now and this is one of the poses she gives me, LOVE it!
With her Uncle Pete...
and Auntie Shell (who had her baby the following Tuesday!!!) YAY!
Ashley blowing the little horn thing (WTF are those things called?).
The Williams crew
Talking to Doey (Joey) who called her to wish her a happy birthday party since they just had their little boy, they couldn't make it.
Reesie was having fun pushing Ash around for a bit.
Than Gia got a turn

Pete and Shell
There was the perfect amount of people there and the weather was PERFECTION!  Couldn't have asked for it to turn out any better! YAY!
My little godson, Willie, he's the man.
These little twins are seriously the most mellow kids.  How can you transfer a sleeping baby in a carseat to a stroller, no clue!  But Nicole is an awesome mom and I guess with her being so calm and mellow it has rubbed off on them. They're so sweet.
I remember as a kid, my mom would always have birthday parties centered around arts and crafts.  I always loved that.  So now I'm doing that for Mya.  Since it was a princess theme, I got these princess birdhouses that the kids painted.  Good times!  Caiden was ready for the arts and crafts. 
Mya hard at work.
The kiddies painting away.
Finn is quite the artist.  I really think his had the most paint.
Carrie with her sweet Eva and Char with Brookie cookie
John and my other godson, Jack.  Love this little guy.  He was only 3 weeks old here!  LOVE!
Cake time!!  Mya was SO excited for this part.  She LOVES blowing out candles and loves when people sing happy birthday to her.  YAY!
Make a wish bean...
And a little video of the singing too!
Since Poppy's birthday is April 11th, we had the grand daughters all sing happy birthday to him too. 
And of course, they all got to blow out the candles too!
These 3 kids are so good!  Love them and I'm so happy we met them at Gymboree.
Ashley joined in, especially cause honestly, she looks like she could be their mom's kid.  She's got red hair! 
Kelly giving Ashley her first taste of cupcakes, YUM!  As if this kid isn't a bad enough eater, now all she'll want is cupcakes and graham crackers, thanks Kel! 
See, the red hair makes them look like family.
Mya and T
Uncle Frankie holding the snap.
Licking all that icing right off!
Awww, Mimi and the bean, so sweet.
John and his little girl.
So So crackin me up.  This girl can eat!  She had a cake pop then marched over to me for a smore pop and I'm sure she coulda fit more in there too!  My kinda girl!
Mya and Tony.
Uncle Pankie set up his tent for the kids to play in.  It was a hit!

I LOVE this one!
And she loves when daddy tosses her in the air. 
The Bea family.  So blessed...
Being silly  as always
I hope your party was all that you dreamed it to be. We love you so much boo. xoxo
