It was a royal celebration - Princess Party at the Park




A few weeks ago we had Kate's 3rd birthday party at our local park. It turned out to be the perfect day! Perfect as in the weather was beautiful, the kids had plenty of room to play, and there was virtually no clean-up for the then 9-month pregnant mama.








The princess cake was made by my friend, Tara. Kate absolutely loved it. Remember, she'd been asking for a princess cake since January!

The highlight of the party was the pinata. Kate wanted to skip opening gifts and go straight to swinging the pinata stick.
All of the party guests seem to love it just as much as she did, as their faces clearly show. Apparently contorting your face and mouth in a variety of ways helps...

Kate, you've made the past three years more special than we could have ever imagined. Thank you for filling our lives with love and laughter, and our home with toys and blue marker stained couches. We love you!
