Adelyn's Tinkerbell Pirate Party

Adelyn turned five this past weekend. Her birthday party was so much fun! The kids all came dressed as pirates, fairies, or lost boys. We made fairy crowns for the girls as we waited for everyone to come. Then we played hot potato to princess music followed by "Pirate, pirate, Tinkerbell" (otherwise known as "Duck, duck, goose.") Then the kids followed clues to help Tinkerbell find the "Lost Treasure." They started outside and trekked up and down the mountains (the stairs), through a rainstorm (a spray bottle), went outside and inside again, and finally found the treasure chest of candy. It was so cute to see them parade around looking for the clues. Then we had cake and ice cream and opened presents. It was so much fun!

The cake turned out really cute thanks to some major help from Ryan (oh, and we bought the cake topper at Albertson's).


This is Ella and Kiera from Adelyn's preschool class. All the fairies looked so darling all dressed up.

The "Pirate, pirate, Tinkerbell" game in action.

Whatever you do, don't pick a fight with this Lost Boy.

Ryan is sure proud of his five-year old girl. They have always been such good friends.

Adelyn was completely spoiled by all of her friends. She has enough jewelry, Barbies, and Polly pockets to last her a life-time.

Look at my little Tinkerbell with her pointed toes! Addie, I am so proud of you and all that you do and are! You are my little sunshine and I am so lucky to be your mother.

Addie's Birthday with Family

We had our family over for brownies and ice cream on Addie's actual birthday, which has been Adelyn's request for quite some time.
Only a little girl would be this excited about getting clothes for her birthday.

Addie loves Hello Kitty. She got this bath and body set from Grandma Ostler. She loves it; thanks so much!

Annalise is sure happy to be having a party.

Adelyn finally got the princess umbrella she's always wanted and a princess shirt to match it!

Preston lovin' on his little baby sister.

We were so happy that my sister Mary and her boyfriend Tim came to celebrate with us too.
