Ashlyn's Sweet Shoppe

Saturday was Ashlyn's big 3rd Birthday Party!!  We decided to go with the sweet shoppe theme b/c anyone that knows my daughter knows she LOVES candy and if you asked her what she wanted for her birthday this year it was the same as last year and the answer was CANDY!! 
I tried to get a little creative but I just don't have much "MARTHA STEWART" in me-oh well I think everything turned out really cute and the kids all LOVED the sweets:)  Thanks to Tess for the neat collage picture!
A special THANK YOU to Rachel at Mama Made It her dress turned out super cute!
 Even though it was a HOT day everyone had a good time and sweated thru it
 The kids played for hours in the pools-the endless amounts of energy they have still amazes me
                                                    These 2 little cutie cousins hung-out in the shade
 They played a little ring around the rosie
 Then it was time to open presents-she ripped right thru them (see daddy in the back picking up all the garbage he is such a neat freak)
                                              Her 1st set of clubs-omg they are so cute!
 She couldn't have been more excited about her new BIG GIRL BIKE-she rides it non stop
 Look at those curls such a cutie-Lainie has her 3rd birthday coming up in a few weeks I think she might like a bike:)
Well here is a not so great family picture but after being hot and sweaty non of us cared to have a picture taken
 
Look at Ashlyn acting all shy while we sung her Happy Birthday
 My favorite picture of the day!!  Overall I think the party was a success but I'm already thinking do I really have to do this again in 3 months:)

I think you were really creative! Everything looks really good! Love the dum dum bouquet and the cupcake stand! Candy theme was such a neat idea!
