Adda Turns 3! Birthday Blogging Catch Up!

This past summer Adda turned 3 years old!  Right before she turned 3 we were able to put her hair in a little ponytail and could even manage pigtails!!!  I wasn't sure she would have a bow until her 5th or 6th birthday!  We decided on an ice cream theme!  I'm not sure why, I can't really remember!  Seems like she told me she wanted that at one time probably not really being serious.  Nevertheless I ran with the idea!  It was fun!  Here are a few pictures from the birthday!

The Birthday Girl!  Awake and ready for the party!

 When does the party start??!!

 Adda and her twin Daddy!

 The inviataions!

I did decide to make a new birthday banner for this birthday! 

 Front door!

 The table of goodies!

 Neapolitan balloon banner!  I learned how to make it on Pinterest!  It's super easy!  I just need to take a nap after blowing up all those balloons.  Oh, and It lasted forever!  You can make it WAY in advance!

 Neapolitan candy dish!  Chocolate Whoppers, Vanilla Popcorn, and Strawberry Whoppers!

 Key Lime Cream Horns!  These were delicious and also very easy to make.  I made the puff pastry shells about a week ahead and the filling could also be made a few days ahead and kept in the fridge.  I put the filling in a ziplock and just snipped the end about an hour before the party to fill them.  So fast and easy!

 Mini Ice Cream Cone Cake Pops!  I have made cake pops that were very difficult and these were not!  The cake pops I made for Adda's first birthday made me want to say about 50 cuss words.  My mom was here helping me and she might have said about 50 cuss words!  Don't tell her I told you that!

 Neapolitan Cake!  The Inside was also Neapolitan!

 Iced Sugar Cookies!  Usually these are the biggest hits at the party!

 Party Favors!  An ice cream bowl, milkshake straw, ice cream bubbles, and a cookie!

 Blowing out the candles!

 Yum!  Delish!

 Unwrapping presents!

 Sweet Ella enjoying the party!

 Pinata time!

 She did not bust it on the first try.  Everyone when twice and finally Gonzo helped Adda give it a good beating to bust it!

 Candy!!!

  Happy 3rd Birthday Sweet Adda B!
