Bailey's Frozen party

Today was Bailey's 6th birthday. We decided to have a Frozen-themed party and it was so much fun! I really got into the theme (thank you, pinterest!!) and had lots of decorations, themed food and games, fun goodies for the kids, and a beautiful gown for my princess.

We served yummy snacks like Anna's sandwiches (pb&j, of course!), Sven's carrots and other yummy treats (veggie tray), Olaf's snow-dipped fruit (fruit with white chocolate dip), Kristoff's icicles (rock candy), Elsa's ice wands (pretzels dipped in white chocolate with sprinkles), Anna's snowballs (powdered donuts), plus a beautiful cake and cupcakes that were all frosted sparkly white.









I hung snowflakes and paper lanterns all over the play room and it was simply magical in there. We had a long table with snowflake centerpieces and a shimmery wand or glow necklace for each guest. B invited her whole class so we had a  LOT of kids here!! We played freeze dance to music from the movie; do you wanna build a snowman with toilet paper, construction paper coal and carrots, and tape; pin the nose on Olaf, and pulled the ribbons on the piñata. Everyone got a prize as well as a "do you wanna build a snowman" kit to take home, which was filled with marshmallows, pretzel sticks, chocolate chips, and a rolled starburst "nose." We also had blue swirl lollipops with Thank You! stickers on them.

The big surprise of the day was when Aunt Joann arrived for the party--from Pennsylvania!! We weren't expecting her but it was so wonderful to see her.










Bailey did a fantastic job opening her gifts. She took the time to read every card (out loud) and really was thankful and excited about every gift--and she had a LOT of them!





All in all, I'd say it was a very successful party!
