Opening Presents, Face Painting, and Friends

After everyone got to the party there was a non-stop line for the next 2 hours for the face painter. It was a last minute decision have the face painter, and I must say it was a great decision, she was amazing at painting faces. Everything she did was freehand and with extremely great detail and color. The funniest part about her was she was really rude or she had a really dry sense of humor that no one got, but oh well the face painting was amazing. In the two hours she was working she painting nearly 30 kids and teeangers faces, and one adults face! After about an hour of jumping non-stop we pulled the kids out of the bounce house, literally there were 10 boys who I think never left that thing, to start eating cupcakes and opening presents. Rylee was so lucky that so many of her friends were able to be at her party. She was spoiled with presents. She got new barbies and accessories, little ponies, little pet shops, new clothes, new coloring and sticker books, princess jewelry, candy, a new baby doll, and lots lots more.
We were able to keep the bounce house as long as we wanted so Rylee, a few friends and Nolan bounced for nearly 5 hours from the start to the end of the party, needless to say they were worn out. I absolutely love throwing my kids birthday parties, it is only once a year that I get to celebrate with everyone how special they are to us. I am so glad Rylee loved her party and so did her friends.






Birthday Party Bounce House

Rylee wanted to have a bounce house party since Nolan had his for his second birthday, but we decided instead of going somewhere we would rent a big bounce house and have the party at the park by our house, and it was a great idea. Honestly, I don't know if Rylee will have a birthday party that was this fun again, even I had fun, it was a blast. She and I looked a couple different websites and this was the bounce house that she wanted the most. It was perfect for the girls and the boys because it had all of the Disney Characters on it, it also had different things to do inside the bounce house (slide, obstacle course, basketball hoop, and jumping area).



Rylee's Birthday Morning

Our little munchkin does not sleep in, ever, but of course on her birthday when I am all excited for her to wake up, she slept in until 8:45. Maybe her extra sleep was a present for herself. When she woke up we had her presents waiting for her on the fireplace and she was SO excited to open them up. She had two presents to open, one from Mom and Dad, and one from Nolan. She had told us she wanted another baby, so we got her another American Girl Doll, this time we got her one of the baby American Girl dolls, and she has slept with it every night since her party. Nolan got her Mickey Mouse nightgown, and I pretty much have to sneak it in the wash or else she cries because she won't be able to wear it to bed that night. The morning was a great start to what became an awesome birthday for our little girl.
