For food, we had princess treats including star-shaped strawberry cream cheese sandwiches, princess wands (made out of pretzel rods, white chocolate and sprinkles), fruit with pink marshmallow dip, princess punch and other sweet things. For activities, the kids embellished wands and bracelets with ribbons, decorated star cookies, got artsy at the imperial coloring station, and visited the "Royal Beauty Salon." At the salon, they received princess braids and had flowers and other sparkly gems applied to their nails. It was so fun to see all the girls in their fancy dresses (and cousin Han as a prince!).
Here's Jia decorating cookies:
And getting princess braids and fancy nails:
Jia went for drama with her multilevel cake. We served it with raspberry sherbet.
On Sunday, we had a family birthday party. We celebrated Jia's birthday along with my grandma's (90) and my uncle's (70) and his friend's. It was a great celebration and the kids had a blast. We got some terrific family pictures and Jia was excited to get her first corsage.
And last but not least, happy anniversary to Joe! We've been married eight years today and I'm lucky, lucky, lucky to have you as my husband!

WOW JANE!!!! What a lovely looking party. I am so sorry we had to RSVP last minute and then couldn't make it last minute, Isla had her fist illness. Anyway it looks like all of the princesses had such a lovely time! Happy birthday to such a big girl. Can't wait to hear all about Kindergarten!!
Wow, Jane! What a creative person you are! Your girls are so blessed to have such a creative mom! I may have to keep some of those ideas stored away for future birthday parties...
