Easter Egg Cakes!




I hope everyone is enjoying their Easter Weekend! I know we are here in the Old Fashioned House!
My five year old seems to be the MOST excited and it's not just because of all the candy she thinks the easter bunny will be bringing. She keeps telling me how nice it was that Jesus died for our sins. and that she LOVES HIM so much for doing that for us!

A Fairy Perfect Party! Let's Eat!!


I don't think I have ever had this much fun planning a party before?!?
I started scouring blogs for ideas four weeks ago but nothing really grabbed my attention until a week before the party.  I'm thinking I work better under pressure.

For now, I'm just going to show you what the little fairies nibbled on while they were here. My next post will be about the party. So get ready for some pictures!! I took over one hundred but I scaled them down to about 30 so we will see if I can do a post with less than that!






Per Fairy Dakoda's request we had Lavender cupcakes with Strawberry icing. (The different colors in the cupcakes are from the Funfetti cake mix I used!)
Since I used the white non perils I had left over from THIS FUN TREAT, D thought they looked like 'flower-cakes'!



And then the Strawberries!!!! We LOVE Strawberries over here at the Old Fashioned House!!
Squirt a little whipped topping in the tops and those beauties did NOT last long at all!!!



D went shopping with me Friday night before her party for some last minute things and picked out some pink marshmallows. I remembered I still had some Almond Bark left and pink sugar sprinkles. It didn't take long to melt and drizzle that over the pink puffs and sprinkle more pink on them!

We also ate some little bunnies, gasp!, crackers!! if you can't see them very well in the next picture, never fear, they will pop up again in the next post!!



During one of my Goodwill trips I picked up 15 different saucer and dessert plates for the Fairies to use!




I also grabbed 15 glass punch cups from Goodwill too! I think they had a Great time using 'breakable cups'!!
In which we served Pink Strawberry Lemonade!!

Can you tell we have a slight obsession with pink and strawberries??
I hadn't noticed before how bad this was!!



And what kind of party would it be without sending everybody home with a SUGAR HIGH?!?!?!
and EXTRA candy??


Have a Great Day Everyone and

Stay tuned for Part 2 of A Fairy Perfect Party!!
