Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Party

Happy 4th Birthday Kayleigh!
Kayleigh wanted to have a Strawberry Shortcake Birthday party this year so we set to work. I found a delicious strawberry cake recipe and made homemade frosting and topped the cake with strawberries. I also made strawberry cupcakes for the kids.


This was back in my early birthday party planning days. The days before Pinterest..... the days before I realized one of my ultimate creative passions- Party Planning!

So, we set out pink and yellow tablecloths for the kids to sit on and have a picnic, we also set out little flower pots that I decorated and personalized with each guest's  name using ceramic markers in white, red, and green. I drew little strawberries around each edge of the pots. The kids took turns planting their own little strawberry plants!



So cute. Very low key, just lots of sun, fun, and playing outside.

Happy Birthday little one!
