This party was way too much fun to plan. Elle's favorite story is Olivia by Ian Falconer. We read it every night before bed, Elle has it memorized. So of course, we decided to have an Olivia Birthday party. Everything was Red, black and white, just like the Olivia books. Elle helped make the red fondant roses on the cupcakes and black fondant polka dots on the cake and of course loved helping to make the cake and cupcakes!!
We colored Olivia pages, played with GLITTERY RED playdough, played pin the red bows on Olivia's ears and we dressed up in red & black skirts, necklaces, bows, hats, glasses.... Elle (like Olivia) "has to try on everything"
Grandma and Elle both dressed like Olivia!!
We threw another Olivia party the next day for 6 of Elle's little girlfriends from her neighborhood playgroup!! wow! Couldn't have done it without Grandma's help!!

I'm going to help you start a website for your new personal company. Party's by Michelle.
That is way to cute! I don't know how you had the time to put that all together - just DARLING! Happy BDay to Elle! I can't believe how fast 3 years can go.
You are the best party planner! I so want to do an Olivia party for Caroline, but she insists on a jewel party. Happy Birthday to Elle.
