Alice had a Mary Poppins themed birthday party this year — and it was supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Kevin asked me if I went overboard on this party, and the answer is: kinda?

I went overboard as far as crafting and theme-ing goes.  I love Mary Poppins, and I just wanted to try so many different things.

And I will tell you, that I absolutely did NOT do everything I wanted to — so see?  Not totally overboard!

I really reeled myself in!  You’re welcome!

Welcome to Alice’s Mary Poppins birthday party!

Games:

Pin the Bowtie on the Penguin. (My sister did this for me, as I have no artistic skills!  Isn’t it perfect?!)

Horse races! (I made horses out of $1 mops.)

Sidewalk chalk pictures!

Tuppence toss.  Alice helped me make this game (you throw pennies on there and try to land on a dot) and it was HARD!  I think I got one after trying about 20 times!

Let’s Go Fly a Kite!  (I made these kites on sticks and they were the biggest hit.  My kids are still playing with them a month later!)

Cake:

She wanted to use a little spoon from the cupcakes (a spoonful of sugar!) to eat her big cake.  Okay, birthday girl!

Overboard: I made cookies that spelled out supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.  Even I know this was ridiculous, but I couldn’t help it!

Birthday girl:

She had THE. BEST. time. I loved, loved, loved her party, and was so happy with how happy she was.  We had her party at our pool’s clubhouse, and invited only family and one friend — and it was very special and fun and cute.

Happy 3rd birthday to my sweet Alice!  Who is practically perfect in every way!
