Avery's Minnie Parties

Happy Valentines Day everyone! Here are the photos of my big girl celebrating her THIRD birthday--for two weeks in a row! We partied in true polka-dot style with a Minnie Mouse theme. All pinks and reds and hearts and bows, it was so cute! I hand-made the invitations using my Cricut machine, which makes cutting and craft ever so much easier.

Here's the birthday girl after seeing all her guests had arrived!

The first party was just for family, and it was smaller and more laid back. The birthday girl had a great time!

Happy to see grandaddy

sweet kisses from her Nana

 

and pretty thrilled to open presents, I can assure you :) 

she got a whole new spring wardrobe!!

The following weekend we had another party for our friends, including lots of little munchkin friends. I must say they were all pretty stinkin' adorable! We accommodated these smaller pals with heart-shaped peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and strawberry iced heart-shaped cookies :)
