Happy 5th Birthday Katie-Bug!

Five seems like such a big birthday.  She's growing up so fast right before my eyes!  With the boys bday's before hers, the princess waited patiently and was so excited when it was finally her day!

We had birthday brownies at lunch and birthday pizza for dinner!


I had the treats made and her decorations ready before I went to bed on Saturday evening....


Before my alarm even went off for church, the poor girl was up, super sick and it lasted half the week.  Another postponed party.  This winter has been a doozy for illness around here!

Thankfully, everyone was healthy and we were able to finally celebrate on Saturday with a super fun pony party!





We played pin the cutie mark on the pony. 

Then it was time for treats and there was a whole table full of them!





The frosting was a pinterest find.  Delicious AND allergy friendly!  Oh how I wish I would have known about it years ago!  I was surprised how the girls devoured every last piece of fruit!  The rock candy suckers were a big hit also.  We prescooped the frozen yogurt into cupcake papers and just pulled it out of the freezer when it was time for cake (thank you again, pinterest).  We've done this the last couple years and it is by far the easiest way to serve ice cream at a party!


After we finished snacking, everyone got pony tattoos and their own pony to take home!  (Yet another reason, I love Dollar Tree!)

Our extra special guest was, Miss Scarlett, who just happened to be born on Kelton's bday!  Her momma, Lisa, is one of my sweetest friends and her big sister, Savannah, is Katie's best buddy.  We were so happy to see her again and I finally got to give her the quilt I made!


Definitely a fun (and tiring) day!  Our whirlwind of parties is finally over and now I can start planning some fun for spring break!

Looks like a fantastic Pony Party. I was so sad we couldn't make it - but looks like she had lots of friends to make her day so special! Katie is growing up - a precious little girl! Love her....
