It's official, simple birthdays are the only way to go! Holly's original birthday party request included two things: chocolate cake and the park. Easy to pull off. Having friends come to the park just to play with you is a happy thing for a four year old and all we had to do was serve chocolate cake and ice cream. No gifts, no favors. The children played so well together and the birthday girl was completely satisfied with her party.
One other thing Holly later requested was a princess on her cake. And while I would love to buy a disney princess figurine to use a cake topper, I choose a less tacky route. Conor printed off a 3-inch circle of Holly and I added a gold crown with glitter glue. I was a little worried Holly would be disapointed, but she totally wasn't! She was so excited!
