A Berry Fun Birthday Party

We had Lynnsie's 3rd birthday party two weekends ago and I still can't believe
we celebrated her THIRD birthday!!  She wanted Strawberry Shortcake...be still my heart, Strawberry was my absolute, total favorite when I was Lynnsie's age.  I had the bedspread, sheets, curtains...even a giant strawberry for a toy box.  So as I strolled her up and down the party aisle at Wal-Mart to pick out a theme, I promise you tears filled my eyes when she pointed and said, 
"Strawberry Shortcake!! I want Strawberry Shortcake!!!"
"Me, too!!", I thought :)

Lynns helped make her strawberry cupcakes

The centerpiece...a brand new baby picture and one
from our family photo session earlier this year.

The Strawberry Shortcake table...strawberry ice cream cups went on the
two empty green plates

Strawberry cupcakes topped with vanilla icing and fresh strawberries.

Chocolate dip and powdered sugar for strawberry dipping

The birthday girl did not enjoy being the center of attention while
everyone sang Happy Birthday to her :)

Her friends eating cupcakes and ice cream

It doesn't matter whose party or where it is...Lynns is the last one
to finish eating because she is not gonna waste a single cupcake crumb
or drop of ice cream...this sweet girl has a very sweet tooth :)

The goodies from her friends and family!!

We got her a scooter (Sorry it's so blurry!)

She got a new suitcase you can ride on :)

I made some pink and green paper bunting
 (although it doesn't look too green in the pic
because of the flash) to hang behind the presents.

Strawberry Twizzlers for favors for our friends and family
who came to celebrate sweet Lynnsie's birthday!
We had a Berry good time!!
