On Sunday we had a small birthday party for Violet, with her closest friends, and several unicorns. Her birthday isn't until next weekend, but we decided to have it early since Tyler's folks were in town and we're edging closer and closer to my baby's due date. Anyway, it was two hours, which is absolutely the perfect length for a party of 5-year olds. I always love Violet's birthday-- it is the beginning of spring, so we always bring in the flowers, and fill our house with all things pastel.
This year was especially fun because it was the first time she really requested a "friends" party. ----So wonderfully cute seeing these little girls all sitting around the table, in our new dining room, eating cucumber tea sandwiches and rainbow fruit skewers and cubes of cheese. We played a couple games too, and had cupcakes, gifts, bubbles, stickers, balloons... she was in heaven.
I cannot believe Violet is 5! The expression on her face in the 5th photo, where she is looking right at the camera, is the spitting image of Tyler. Happy (early) birthday Violet!
