MyGirl picked out the birthday theme, a Hawaiian Luau. We kept our decor to the dining room, went to the dollar store then filled in with what we had on hand.
We added a few Luau paper cutouts to our banner wall on the window.
We had fruit kabobs, Hawaiian Haystacks, punch of Pineapple sherbet and Sprite, and Banana cupcakes.
So easy to sprinkle on brown sugar over the frosting to look like sand and dollar store umbrellas on top. She loved this!
The balloon was the gift from her little brother. We know how she loves helium balloons!
When everyone arrived, there were leis and shell necklaces to wear and place cards of palm trees to tell everyone where to sit.
The shells usually sit on a ledge next to my bathtub, and looked perfect on the fabric I brought back from Hawaii in 2007.
She wanted a new floral apron so I made this last week for her and she loved it. She had picked out the main floral fabric. My trick of the week was sewing it when she was either sleeping or at seminary.We're together so much, it takes extra planning to pull off any surprises for her!
It was fun to be together. She loved all her presents and our horse-back riding adventure through Garden of the Gods. We were glad to have our grandparents back from visiting my brother's family in Nashville. She told me this morning she loved her day yesterday, so I'm glad.
