Reagan's Pinkalicious Party!

We celebrated Reagan's 6th birthday with a Pinkalicious Party! She had determined many months ago that she wanted this theme and that's when the planning began!

On a side note, I have to give major (and probably MOST) of the credit to one of my besties, Caryn! She is my party planning hero and I called on her expertise to help me set up this plethora of pink! I did all the purchasing the couple of months before and began storing it away in my closet. She came over, the day of, looked through it all and put everything in its spot. I had no idea how to display it all or how it should all look, and she came in and ran with it! She seriously could have a very successful party planning business, but now that she is about to be a mommy to 4 boys (see post below!) I think that career will have to be put on the back burner! Caryn - THANK YOU for coming over, very pregnant, with two boys in tow, willing to decorate my entire house for this party! You are incredible and I love you so much!

Back to the PARTY! COME ON IN! Forgive me for the multitude of pictures and enjoy all the PINK!
As soon as all the girls arrived (dressed in pink!) Brad read the story, Pinkalicious. I was putting Reagan to bed one night this week, and I asked her what her favorite part of her party was. She told me it was having her Daddy read the story to all her friends! Melt my heart!
This little pink girl stayed close to her Mimi all night. She wasn't so sure about all the excitement!
We divided the girls into stations and they rotated between them. One of the stations was a Sweet Shoppe. They filled their boxes with all kinds of pink goodies!
Another station was the Beauty Shoppe. Pink nails, pink eyeshadow, pink blush and pink lip gloss. To top it all off, we took them out back and sprayed their hair pink!
The Cupcake Shoppe was the third station. The girls decorated cupcakes with pink, pink and more pink!
This sweet girl is Reagan's Waco BFF , Sophie. Sophie and her mommy came all the way from Waco just to celebrate with Reagan. You can only imagine how special that made Reagan feel. We love our Sophie!
the decorated masterpieces!
I did have some pre-decorated cupcakes for the adults.

Love your post of Reagan growing up - since we weren't doing blogs back then it was fun to see her growing up in photos.

Happy 6th!

Such a fun party--makes me want to jump through the screen and go to each station!

Can't believe Reagan is six. I remember vividly holding her in the hospital for the first time. She had the most darling little nose! remember?? :) sweetie pie
