Pixies & Pirates

We had the opportunity to help an adorable little girl celebrate her 5th birthday this past Fall, and while I know I'm a little behind in my blog posts- I'm excited to share some of the photos with you now.  Enjoy!

This was our dress up station, where our precious pixies got into their costumes for the day.  The girls had so much fun doing their makeup and helping each other into their tutus and fairy wings.  We had a lot of little helpers too, which made our job a whole lot easier (and a lot more fun)!

After the girls got into their fairy costumes, we helped the boys into their pirate attire and then it was off to races with our first activity of the day.... the scavenger hunt!

The host family let us stash clues all over the property and the children had a great time following the trail of hints to the treasure chest waiting for them at the end of their journey.

Once the final clue had been answered it was time for the girls to learn a fairy dance to "Waltz of the Flowers" (which they later preformed for their parents and other guests.  They were so cute, I wish I would have gotten a video).  

While the girls were twirling away, the boys headed outside to play "A message in a bottle" with Ms. Natalie.

After the first batch of games were completed it was onto the back porch for lunch and the ever important birthday cake, YUM!

Here are the tables for the Pixie's Tea Party.    

I think they turned out really cute!

We didn't forget about our 

rowdy band of pirates!  

They had a special table all to themselves.

No Pixies Allowed!

After the last crumb of cake was
eaten it was back inside for our
last round of games.

The girls played pin the wand on
the fairy, while the boys pinned
the eye patch on the pirate. 

(I wish I had a picture of the pirate game, 

but it was on the backside of the 

sandwich board with the fairy on it). 

I will try to get a picture of it next time :)

It was so much fun planning this party.  The children were so sweet and polite, it was hard to believe they were only 5 years old.  

(I hope my little one is as enjoyable 

to be around when she's that age).


Thanks for checking in!  
I should have more parties posted to the blog in the 
next few days so visit us again when you have a chance.
