Pancake & Pajama Party

For Haley's third birthday we threw her a pancake & pajama party. Despite the downpour outside everything inside went great. The guests all seemed to have a good time and I know without a doubt that the birthday girl had a blast...she hasn't stopped talking about it. Hopefully it is something she will remember for a long time.

Get ready because this is a long one. There are a lot of pictures intermixed with a little bragging...I am a little proud of myself because all the decorations were made by me! :)

The spread included pancakes, topping bar, fruit kabobs, careal treats, and strawberry and confetti cupcakes along with milk and oj. The adults had breakfast casserole with coffee and mimosas.

The pancake bar included syrup, strawberry syrup, blueberries, strawberries, banans, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and whipped cream

Delicious pancakes made to order by the birthday girls daddy. 

Strawberry and confetti cupcakes with buttercream frosting. Yum!

Fruit loops treats. These were a big hit.
  
While the girls ate breakfast they watched the much talked about Peter Pan Returns..this was a special request by Haley. Apparently watching cartoons while eating is fun. :)






After breakfast the girls colored pictures of pancakes and made cereal necklaces. 
  
Each girl had their own bag with a shoelace and fruit loops for stringing (snacking on).




This was the first year Haley was able to rip through them all on her own. It really was like a tornado...so much destruction in such a short period of time. :)

She got a lot of great gifts and has already opened and played with everything.



Little brother looking on and taking notes. Only two weeks to go little man and then it's your turn.


Time for cupcakes! 

As with every year in the past Haley got really shy and embarrased when we sung the "Happy Birthday Song". She came around once the singing ended and was able to blow out the candles with a little help.
 

Yum. Found the cupcake after the party...the cake was still fully in tack but every last spec of icing had been licked away.

The cupcakes also went over pretty well with the little ones...big surprise there. :)

 Your next little man. 

Thanks to everyone who helped put the party together and to pinterest for all the great inspiration and ideas.
