Happy 5th Birthday Violet!

Wow! We had a little princess turn FIVE this weekend! Violet is such a little lady and loves all things girl while at the same time she can scale a tree and is a wrestling champ with her daddy:) I love how adventurous this little girl is and can't wait to see where it takes her in her life.

I made blue and pink cupcakes with white chocolate crown/tiaras as the headpiece...

These are wands and crowns that Violet and I decorated for her party




We had tons of games for our "16" guests, but the hit of the party was the pinata!


Owen was right behind his big sister smacking that down!

After everyone had a turn my dad knighted Sir Chase and he finished it off...



During present time I had set up 2 royal thrones, one for the birthday princess and the other for her gift-giver. It was a great way to get a picture with her and each of her friends.

Ethan is Violet's buddy from preschool and they love playing together! Also, his mom Ellen is a long-time friend of the family.

Ellie is Vi's friend from preschool

Lucy is a neighborhood friend

Maisie is another neighborhood friend. It's great that we have 2 sweet girls within a few houses of each other to play with!

Caed is a friend from church and Vi went to Little Learners with him.

McKay, a preschool friend.

And his twin, Caleb. They give Violet a run for her money! She loves them though and often tells me how funny those twin boys are:)

Morgan is a friend from preschool.

Mallory is another friend from preschool.

Joshua is Vi's buddy from DC and they also went to Little Learners together.

Chayse and Violet carpool together to Preschool.

Ella, Giovanni, and Violet are like cousins:) And they LOVE to be together so she has really missed seeing them on a regular basis since we moved out of the city.

Aliyah is a sweet girl from our church and they also went to Little Learners together.

And of course, Queen Mom Mom had to sit on the throne as she watched her royal granddaughter open her gifts:)
