Catie's Easter Birthday Party

Even though the bouncer I had reserved in February did not show up, I think my daughter's 4th birthday was a success.

Invitation wording:

Miss Catherine Grace is turning FOUR
For a theme she requested Hello Kitty-Princess-Lego-Star Wars.

However, as her birthday falls on Easter Day,
Instead we will have a bouncer and hunt for Easter eggs*!
The festivities will start at 11 am on April 8
And we hope that you can join us to celebrate

Decorations: Much to my husband's chagrin, there were Giant Easter Eggs everywhere: 

Cake table: featured coffee-filter flower bouquet, a Hello Kitty flower bouquet, and blow up light sabers.


Food: deviled eggs, crackers and cheese, fruit, a bread bunny dip bowl amid a field of veggies, a bunny shaped watermelon fruit bowl and finger sandwiches.
 Activities: make a princess crown or monster mask craft, an Easter egg hunt, and playing.

Birthday cupcakes: baked either in egg-shaped foils or ice cream cones and topped with chocolate birds nests, Hello Kitty candies, or candy Lego bricks (made with the Wilton's candy melts and a Lego brick ice cube tray).

Overall, I think the party was a success!


Catie seemed very happy with her party
