A Never Land Party

This year we decided to have a big party for both kids.  A great idea in theory, but can be difficult in theme to keep both kids happy.  We decided on a Never Land theme which can deffinitly satisfy all. 

The party went perfect with pirate lessons, a sword fight with Captain Hook, and a treasure hunt through the neighborhood.  The kids all had a blast!

The house was decorated into parts of Never Land.  Pixie Hollow in the playroom was decorated with large blades of grass and big flowers. That way our flittering fairies would feel so tiny.  We had Pirate Island for all our pirate friends, including a ship banister!  Peter, John, Micheal and Wendy were flying overhead working their way to the clock. 

We had an amazing cake made by Whisk Me Away.  She made us an amazing creation-a perfect treasure chest cake.  It looked amazing an tasted great too!

The kids all dressed up in their favorite Never Land character.  We had Tinkerbelle, Rosetta, Tiger Lilly, Peter Pan, Hook and lots of pirate boys.  They all looked so cute!

Beauty and the Beast DVD party!

We are huge Disney fans in this household.  We have been anticipating the release of Beauty and the Beast with excitement.  We love themed parties in our house, and with the release of the movie, I thought we should throw a DVD party.  So tonight we had our first DVD party with the kids. 
We made these adorable Mrs. Potts cake pops with a tutorial from Bakerella which you can find here.  This was a huge hit with the kids and the moms.  Everyone loved them!

We had castle and crown sandwiches, apples, and popcorn during the movie.  The kids loved the movie.  They were scared a little, but loved it. 

 

It all ended with the sweetest "Tale as old as time" inspired dance party.  The kids twirled around holding hands, giggling and smiling. 

We are planning a once a month movie party, complete with themed deserts.  Next month: Polar Express, at of course- the Polar Express.  We will be heading to Arizona for the train ride in November with all our good friends to kick off the holiday season.
