Rapunzel, Rapunzel...

Quick share of Alyssa's 5th birthday party pictures:)
I've had the pictures on the computer since June, but I'm just now sitting down long enough to post them!


I've had a lot of people ask me about birthday party stuff recently also. I don't have a particular place I go to for ideas or supplies. After the kids and I talk about what they want to do for their birthdays I think and imagine a whole lot and then wonder around a craft store for more inspiration. If I'm having a hard time with a certain part, like coming up with another activity or something, I'll usually get on pinterest or just do a search. I have done a couple of copy cat parties in the past because of kiddos requesting it,But I avoid doing that now because half the fun is coming up with ideas and then seeing them through.


To start off,  we read the story of Rapunzel.
Here's the quick Rapunzel story. pregnant woman is hungry and really wants lettuce. Desperate husband steals lettuce for pregnant wife. Desperate husband gets caught by mean witch lady. Mean witch lady tells them they have to promise her their baby or she'll turn him in. Mean witch lady takes baby girl and calls her Rapunzel. That was the old name for the lettuce her mother craved so much.  Mean witch lady hides Rapunzel in tower. Prince discovers tower. Prince climbs up Rapuzel's really long hair. Prince and Rapunzel fall in love.....

Parker loved Alyssa's Rapunzel hair!! I got her hair from a shop on etsy. I wanted to attempt to make it, but I was pushed for time. Alyssa's party was only 2 weeks after Jacob's Harry Potter party.
