Lily's Favorite Things Birthday Party

 We've been talking about Lily's Cowgirl 4th birthday for as long as I can remember- so much so that Tom & I were looking into the possibility of pony rides- and then- she changed her mind. About 3 weeks before her bday Lily told me she wanted an 'Earth cake" and a "unicorn pinata" for her bday.. And that was it.. So, we quickly changed course & made her party a "Lily's Favorite Things" theme. Lucky for me, the Earth cake idea was swapped for an 'ice hockey cake' at the last minute.

 We had an awesome face painter come! She was amazing & all the kids looked great!
 Lily's friend Mayla.
 Stella, Lily & Georgia chatting away (and already being mean to the boys).
 Mmmm.. My 1st marble cake b/c Lily wanted a 'yellow & chocolate cake'
 Like any quality kids party, we started serving the adults beer at 10:30- a few friends stayed late to enjoy the last really nice afternoon of Fall and help us finish up the beers. Lily got to play with her buds for hours!
 The present mayhem begins..
 and grows..
Surveying her loot with Dad. Note: when I came down from putting Lily down for her nap, I found Tom asleep in pretty much the same position.
