Butterfly Fairy Garden Party

We had Selah's party this weekend and it was so amazing. First off, I would like to thank God for the amazing weather He provided for us. There were reports that it would rain but we prayed and God granted our prayer and we had 82 degree weather! Couldn't have asked for a better day. It was hard work and since I had fallen off my bike a couple of days before I was very sore. But my family really pulled through. Valentin was awesome and did such an amazing job putting the chairs, tables, and running the last bit of errands I needed finished. Joel and Sophia were such great helpers with the decorating and even the cooking. We had a great turn-out and most importantly Selah had fun.

 

I wanted everyone to feel like they stepped into a butterfly garden, deep in the forest...

with a chandelier in the center of course...

 The first playstations!

A little bit of tissue paper and twigs from the yard made these quite special

We had a Mac & Cheese stations with 4 different kinds of mac! YUM!

Such cute holders I scored for a dollar!!!

This cake was not only beautiful but it tasted delish

The name does has a beautiful tone if I do say so myself

 We had all sorts of friends (and Tia's) over at the party

Selah's BFF

 Eryka was more a bumble bee than butterfly! look at those arms! I just feel like biting them!

 All the beautiful little butterflies

We did a decorate-your-own-butterfly craft

 Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to Selah, Happy Birthday to YOU

 Piñata done by her Tio Israel

                                       Of all the candies, she zeroed in on the lolli-pop

 SOMEONE opened it for her!

and boy did she not let it go!

SUGAR HIGH!

This is her first doll (thanks Sandra) and it is amazing how as girls we are wired to be so nurturing...

 Now to plan Joel and Sophia's party for November :-)
