We worked well into the night getting everything ready for the big partay....and got up around 5 ish this morning. Essie was wondering what in the world we were doing!!!
She did help fill the ice buckets for the bottled water outside though...(well eat the ice!)
And here are some pics of the party decorations...as you can see we did pinks and zebra. I chose this because I had so much of it left over from a shower I threw earlier this year. We made 90% of everything.
The front porch...

From Kellys Korner...Looks like we had a lot of the same ideas for a bday party. Wish I would have added the water part like you though. Ours was late July outside and we were burning up!
You did AWESOME!!! Everything looked so great! How did you make the sucker bouquet??
