It's party time....Rapunzel style!

We celebrated Sadie's 3rd birthday yesterday with a party fit for a princess! This is the first year that she's been really aware of what it means to have a birthday, and she was very excited to celebrate turning 3.
Sadie's all-time favorite character/movie/topic/thing is Rapunzel from the movie "Tangled", so I knew months ago what her birthday party theme would be. After some internet searches, I found some super fun ideas that I used to pull it off. I found a paper lantern garland that captured the floating lantern scene.
Strung around the table was a very long yellow yarn braid that sounds easy to make, wasn't, and was still totally worth it in the end as it turned out super cute!
Rapunzel's tower. I never thought I was crafty, but as it turns out I can totally follow someone else's creative instructions. Just love how this turned out.
Little jello boats.
Cupcakes!
Sadie was very excited to open her presents. Unlike most kids who just rip into presents and move immediately on to the next one, Sadie really took her time and checked out most of her gifts before moving on.
The kiddos checking out her new Rapunzel blanket for a big girl bed!
Trying on her new jewelry.
Her first cabbage patch doll!
New skirt, tiara, jewelry, shoes, and wand. Have you ever seen anything more girly in your life?
Party guests!
Our family!

Last but not least, a super cute video of us singing "Happy Birthday to You"!
