A Party Fit For A Princess

Riley's 3rd birthday falls on Easter this year, so we decided to have her birthday party with all of her friends a week early.  When we asked Miss R what kind of birthday party she would like to have, there was absolutely no question in her mind, a princess party. 
We took her to the Disney store and let her choose a princess dress for her special day.  It was a tough decision, but after trying them on and twirling in each she decided that she wanted to be Cinderella for her party.  It was the perfect dress to match her favorite pair of "glass slippers" too.  She also got to wear the tiara that mommy wore for her wedding. 

On the morning of her party, she woke us up at 6:45 to let us know that it was time for her birthday party and she also wanted to remind us that we really needed to go get her Cinderella cake.  It may have been just a little too early to get the party started, but she was WAY too excited to go back to sleep.
 Riley got to have all of her very best friends at her party and she had so much fun!  We had a mix of princesses and some superheros too, so the girls decorated wands and tiaras while the boys had fun playing with their masks and swords. 


In honor of Riley's Easter birthday we thought it would fitting to have an Easter egg hunt....
 All the little ones got to dash around after prize filled eggs and then check out their loot.

Of course her perfect princess party would not have been complete without her Cinderella cake...

 and she enjoyed every bite!  Especially the frosting.
Riley loved every minute of her birthday party and we are so lucky to have such wonderful friends to help us celebrate our little princess!
