For her birthday dinner she requested broccoli, a broccoli cake and for Lexie to eat some broccoli! Lexie absolutely refuses to try the green trees. I did my best to make a broccoli cake, but I think it ended up looking like a green Mickey Mouse on a stick, fortunately she didn't care how it looked!
Mimi, Papa, Nana and Augraddy all came over for pizza, broccoli, cake and a few presents. Addie had several servings of broccoli that night but only 2 bites of her pizza.
The next weekend we celebrated her birthday with friends and the rest of our family at STJ's Inflation Station with a Pixies and Pirates party. Krystal, my sister, designed the invitations and they turned out perfect!
I wish I could take credit for the cake, but after the broccoli cake disaster I paid someone to make this one and my mom gets all the credit for the cupcakes, which were adorable!
In addition to cake our party menu included Chick-Fil-A nuggets, Pirate's Booty, and Pirate ship fruit boats.
My mom also gets credit for stamping the favor bags, which were then filled with chocolate gold coins (Addie's favorite), bubbles, pixie dust (pixie sticks), tattoos, stickers and fairy stamps with paper.
Yep, you guessed it, Krystal also made these cute, coordinating water bottle labels.
It was a really fun party and Addie had such a great time!!! Thank you to all those who came and helped us celebrate this special little girl's life, we are so blessed.
