Happy Birthday Little Bird!

Part of me feels like it is impossible that it could be Little Bird's 5th birthday.  It couldn't have been that long ago!  But indeed it is, and our girl requested a My Little Pony birthday party.

I made a swag banner for her with all her favorite ponys.  It was fun and pretty easy to make. 

A closer look.

The '5' is in a great sequined paper I found at Hobby Lobby.

Fresh out of the shower and still damp, Little Bird has her first look at the banner.  She loved it.

Sis had the dress custom made for her.  

Bird wanted Mexican for her party luncheon, so it was a Pony Fiesta.  There were fajitas, tacos, homemade salsa & chips, pico de gallo, guacamole, black bean & corn relish, "Mexican" pasta, plus some cheese and crackers.  Also a tasty jello salad made by Big J's grandmother and fresh fruit salad.

Big J had to grill the chicken for the fajitas out in the rain!  LOL

After everyone enjoyed their lunch it was time to open the presents!

From her great grandmother... a puzzle and some cash to go into her Build a Bear Pony fund.

From Grandma and Grandpa... a huge stash of Pony products.

The Pony blanket was a hit.

And from Auntie and Unca... a 'Matilda Jane' top and the made over Pinkie Pie from my last post.

Pinkie was a hit!

And after presents:  it's cupcake time!

Time to blow out the candle.

Happy Birthday Little Bird!
