Netta's Turn

I am so far behind on blogging that it is kind of pathetic. Netta's birthday was on May 9th, I uploaded these pictures on June 5th and now it is July 8th and I am finally writing this post. My niece Sarah is here visiting and I am going to make the most of her ability to entertain my kids and try and catch up. So yeah Netta turned 3 this year. She has an obsession with all things Hello Kitty so that was the theme of her party. I was just going to have my sister over and keep it really simple, but then I caved and decided to let her have a party with some friends. We still kept it low key and just had a couple of her friends and their families over for pizza and cupcakes.
The cake turned out awesome and Netta loved it, so thank you Target. I keep thinking one day I will try and do the cake myself, but I just can't work up the will yet. After the stress of EZ's cupcakes for his 3rd birthday I just haven't had the desire to make them again. The colors on the cake were really bright and required copious amounts of food coloring, which did a number on everyone's bowel movements for the next week. ;)

Netta got a lot of great presents, including this tutu that my sister Sarah made for her. She was so excited to be getting gifts that her whole body shook every time she got to open one. It was awesome.

Even though having another party added to the stress of May, Netta is so stinkin cute that I just had to do it.
