Annaliese has been into playing Candy Land a lot lately and so it seemed natural to pick Candy Land as a theme for her birthday party. We had fun scouring the internet for ideas and then coming up with a few games and decorations that seemed appropriate for a 4 year old party! We had a rainbow trail winding throughout the house and our snacks included candy canes, gumdrops (they were actually Dots but close enough!) peanuts and lollipops! Party favors included a toothbrush for everyone to counteract all the sugar:)
We invited all of her friends from school, as well as Grandpa and Grandma, Uncle Thane and Auntie Kim, and Uncle Ben and Auntie Kelsey. Thankfully the sun was out and although it was a bit chilly outside, the kids had a great time playing together!

Cupcakes...each kiddo got to decorate their own cupcake
It was a bit windy out, so I had a hard time getting the candle lit...but Annaliese was right there to blow it out as soon as I got it!

Decorating cupcakes
Annaliese is definitely enjoying all of her gifts! We've been painting, coloring, putting together new legos, playing new games and wearing new clothes ever since Saturday! It was so much fun to have so many people together and get to watch Annaliese interact with all of her friends. It is also nice to get to know the parents of the kids in her class...after all, they could all be in the same class together for the next 10 years!
