Pinkalicious Party

We had to postpone Courtney's party last week, due to our unexpected trip up to Idaho. She wanted a Princess party {like all her friends}, but then we came across this book, and a new party theme was born! Courtney had seriously over 40 people she wanted to invite, but for my own sanity, I had to limit her to 10.
This book is about a little girl who loves everything pink-- especially pink cupcakes! After having too many, she winds up with a bad case of "Pinkititis."The girls were so darling, all decked out in pink fabulousness. They colored, had their nails painted, made wands, danced-- it was so girly & cute!
The guys were such gentlemen in helping out! Alexander was our nail-polish-dryer-man, the DJ for the dancing game, the Bingo caller-- such a good sport. Darren was awesome, too! My fav was his cameo performance as a dancer-- the girls thought he was hilarious:)

Sweet friends sharing gifts
The only cure for Pinkititis is eating green foods. I must say, the pink foods were a much bigger hit than the green ones. The girls loved the Hot-Diggitys {Lil' Smokies wrapped in crescent rolls} and pink marshmallows the best!
The girls loved decorating their very own pinkalicious cupcakes. Sweetie, you're so beautiful & we're so glad you're our girl!
Thank you's were all pink--nail polish, gum, bracelets, wands & a flower clip {and yes, the french fry box was made by my Silhouette} What a fun party!
