Lauren is 3!

Lauren just celebrated her 3rd birthday; of course it wasn't just one day of festivities, we had something for her each day of the week it seemed. actually it was more like two weeks. celebrations at home, zoo, school, grandparents, everywhere we went...we were singing her the birthday song. when i tried to celebrate mine, she would say, 'no mommy it's not YOOOUR birthday, it's MYYYY birthday! uhm, what was i thinking trying to steal her thunder? hathis year we had it at Kreative Kidz Partyz in Plano - wow, this place really does great parties!! i give it 2 thumbs up and would totally recommend it!! we had a Hello Kitty Princess Theme Dress-up Party- girls were princesses and the boys were prince and knights. it was too too cute and all of lauren's friends seemed to Love it!!
As the guests arrived at the party, there was a cute table set-up with balloons and lauren took a picture with each of her friends. once they finished with the pictures, then they moved to a coloring/ sticker station where they did some arts and crafty projects. then, they moved into the dress up room. all the girls changed into princess dresses and the boys quickly changed into prince and knights costumes. it was truly the most adorable thing. they sang, played games, had bubble machines, and they sat on the floor surrounding the birthday princess! the friends went around the room saying something nice about the lauren. so so sweet to hear the kiddos giving lauren such great compliments. some of them said, 'we like how you always give me a hug when i see you'. "your smile and eyes are very pretty", and so on....
at the end of the party, she gave each of her guests a very special personalized thank you note with the picture of her and that guest. It was such a unique way to end the incredible birthday celebration!
lauren was a little overwhelmed with all of the attention, but overall had a terrific time and has not stopped talking about her Hello Kitty Princess Party!
