Ella's little best buddy Navy Osborne.
We started out the party playing with dress-ups that our friend Tara let us borrow! Thanks again Tara they were such a hit!
Cheesin' it up in her fancy garb!
Our sweet little Cazzy, she was such a good sport and let us put whatever we wanted on her. She was a little doll.
Here's our biggest princess of them all, red is such a good color on her don't ya think?
Such a sweetie!
Can this girl be any happier?
I think not!
Mischievous bunny???
Navy's orange hair was quite the rage!
We played some Disney Princess music and the girls had a blast dancing at the ball together.
Happy daughter = Happy Mama!
Aww Granny Cazzy, so cute!
Do-rags or bust, she was such a little ham when we put that on her! I think Hell's angels motorcycle gang might be in her future. :)
Just kidding we all know Caz is a true girly girl!
Jack is going to kill me when he sees this picture in the future but we couldn't resist! That blue dress was the perfect size for him! Sorry bud we love you and know your all boy!
Next we went to paint their nails and put on their princess make-up!
Navy, our pretty little "Ariel" with her long red hair.
Ella loved the make-up part...
and got a little carried away... :)
Showin' off her fab nails!
Next we ate some pizza, chips and apples and then it was time for her Barbie Princess Cinderella cake!
I made this cake all myself and I was pretty proud of how it turned out! It ended up taking more time than I would have liked but it was a fun thing to try and Ella loved it which made it all worth it!
Side view of the layers I used to make the cake.
Aunt Didi and Princess Caz.
Jack was getting impatient for some cake...hurry up already!
Biggest baby blues ever, so cute!
After cake we made some princess crowns with glitter and sequins but for some reason we didn't take any pictures of that.
Then we handed out the edible princess wands and said goodbye to friends.
Jack was quite a fan of them!
Ella kept saying "Bebity-boppity-boo" as she ran around swinging it in the air and eating it. They were quite the hit!
Just a sweet little pic of Daddy and Jack hangin' out together trying to keep their masculinity with all the girly stuff going on around them! :)
Then El got to open her big surprise, she had to wait patiently on the couch with her eyes closed...
the unveiling....
Whoo-hoo, a pink Barbie tricycle!
The test drive!
All in all we had quite a blast for Ella's third birthday party! I had so much fun putting it all together and coming up with fun things to do with her! It was such a joy to see her face light up the way it did as she got to be a queen for a day! We love that little girl with all the laughs and spunk she brings to our family! It still blows my mind how much she has grown up already, it's true what they say about how fast it goes! I am so glad I get to relish in these times with my children and I am so grateful Heavenly Father blessed me with both of them! They are truly an amazing gift!
