Anna-Claire's Kitty Cat Birthday Party



Anna-Claire is 3 years old! Today is her actual birthday, but we celebrated on Saturday at her cat-themed party. (A-C loves cats!) The Birthday Girl wore a pretty pink tutu and a cat shirt from the blabla store that also had the number 3 on it. Plus, the cat on her shirt matched her blabla cat doll, Rose, that she got for her birthday. So cute! She also is wearing an adorable cat bracelet her Aunt Robin brought back from the Czech Republic.


Here's the big Birthday Girl with her family before the festivities got started. Don't you love their fun party hats?


I love this picture!


Kate loved the hats--she tried to get various people to put them on throughout the party. LOL!


More fun party stuff.


Treat bags--I meant to get a photo of the innards. ;o) I think we must have left Kate's in Tennessee. (Will you all save it for her?) If I remember correctly, inside her bag was a cat finger puppet, a Kit Kat bar, a Hello Kitty photo album, a Hello Kitty stamp, a kitty cat pen ... and I can't remember what else. :o)


Yummy cupcakes!


They were delicious, too!


The kids decorated cookies to look like cats.


They also played "pin the tag on the cat's collar" (or something like that). ;o)


Presents! Get it? Three lollipops on the gift bag because she is 3 years old!

After gifts, it was cupcake time!


Look! Riley's cupcake matches her shirt!


So does Bekah's--there is a cupcake on her shirt behind that sippy cup (not her sippy, by the way--LOL!).


Party guests--Abba and three of her cousins.


Grammy and Grampy


Uncle Steven and Aunt Robin


Kate and her parents


Kate and her Aunt BaBa


Anne's side of the family


Johnny's side of the family (missing our Spain relatives, of course)

Isn't this the sweetest? This is how Rebekah signed A-C's card.

ETA:
We got Kate's treat bag--thanks to Aunt Anne and Uncle Johnny for saving it for her. :o) I took a photo of the contents:


What great goodies--thank you!

  4. What a beautiful party! I love the 3rd birthday because it's usually the first one that the child really knows what's going on....and I can see it so clearly in Anna-Claire's precious eyes! So much fun and excitement. Our girls would have loved it so much. Marianna, Isabel, and JOanna are always pretending to be cats! They'll love seeing all the great pics you took!
