I'm finally getting around to posting about Mylin's birthday party. I wasn't going to really do anything for this birthday since I went all out for her first birthday party and I had a newborn baby. But...I realized I couldn't not do anything! I like to throw parties and have people over, so we ended up having a party. I didn't put near as much time or effort into this party, but it still turned out good. (Thank you to Pinterest for most of the ideas!)
Mylin was REALLY into the movie Tangled so we decided to go that route. I vowed (before I had kids) that I would never ever ever throw a princess party for my girl. That obviously changed when I saw how into it Mylin was! It wasn't super princessy---I went more with the purple and yellow sunburst theme.
Here are the favor bags.
Inside the favor bags: Rapunzel's Paint and Chalk and Tangled candy.
Okay, this picture really doesn't do it justice! I swear it looked cuter in real life! There was a whole other table with drinks and stuff and I totally forgot to take a picture of it! Also, we had big streamers hanging all over from the ceiling and the walls and I forgot to take a picture of that! I was pretty mad that I forgot to take a picture of everything, but it did look cute!
Food Table
Jello Boats: Huge hit with the kids!
We just had the grocery store make this cake. It turned out pretty cute.
Fruit Towers...Get it? Fruit TOWERS! Because Rapunzel is in a tower!? Okay..I thought I was genius!
I made 6 pizza braids (braids...hair?! Another genius idea! Haha!) This is after I cut them up into edible sizes, but they looked pretty neat before I cut them up.
Rapunzel's Tower: Inside there were princess and birthday books.
Pin the Pan on Flynn. If you haven't seen the movie, this probably doesn't make any sense!
Coloring Station: We had Rapunzel coloring pages .
Birthday Girl
Kale had a blast.
Mylin's Aunt Amanda sent her this Rapunzel wig for her birthday and it was a HUGE hit! The girls thought it was so awesome! Thanks Aunt Amanda!
It took Mylin like 5 minutes to blow her candle out!
Opening presents.
Outside our house.
Glad you made it through all of those pictures! Happy 2nd Birthday Mylin!
Everett went through a mild obsession with Tangled... so I got all of the little "Tangled" things and you ARE genius! What a cute party! (And I don't even know how you pulled it off with a newborn!)
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Thank heavens for pinterest huh?!?
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Sydney is wanting to do a Tangled party this year... and I'm like you and never really wanted to do a "princess" party. But it is fun to see them get so excited over something they love!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great party! Isn't it funny the things we will do even though we said we would never do that for our kids, but when they like something so much you just end up having to do it for them. You did an awesome job, I'm sure Mylin loved it!
ReplyDeleteSoooo cute, Party Queen!!! Love all the pictures!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute party! What do you mean you didn't go all out?...it sure looks like it! I'm sure Mylin had a blast!
