I can not believe my baby girl is 4! We all say it, but time really does go by so fast!
Putting this party together was so much fun. All she really wanted was that it be pink, pink (emphasis on the pink!) and unicorn themed. I think we pulled it off! I found the sweetest plates and napkins at Homesense and they kind of set the tone for the rest of the party. We took the various shades of pink from the plates and tried to incorporate them throughout the rest of the party. I found these starburst shaped balloons at the balloon store and loved them for their uniqueness and also how they sort of mimicked unicorn horns as well. I ordered the cake from a local bakery in shades of what else – pink! Another local shop made the unicorn topper for us. For the favours, I ordered everyone their own unicorn wands from this shop. They were a big hit! I also used a few of her unicorn stuffies on the drink cart for a cute little touch.
I have found that investing in cute party decor staples really helps me a ton with party planning. I found the milk bottles at Michaels and they’re glass so I can reuse them for many more parties. The drink stand and cake stand I also reuse for a ton of parties. The drink cart makes for the perfect little drink and snack stand too – again that I can reuse and restyle again and again.
I know she had such a fun day and an actual unicorn may have even showed up at the end for some magical rides :).
Thanks to all our friends and family who made it out to celebrate with us, you made her day so special!
This farm was pure magic. As soon as I drove up and caught my first glimpse of the fields I was awestruck. Walking around it was even more magical. We made sure to show as much respect for the farm and the plants as possible and no sunflowers were harmed in the taking of these photos. It was not busy when we were there and we got to really take in the farm for all its beauty.
Fast forward to the next weekend; news of this farm had travelled and suddenly I was reading reports of 7000 cars showing up in one day. Police had to be called, people were parking illegally and crossing dangerous roads of traffic on foot with strollers, they were avoiding paying the entrance fees and were wandering into the fields from the roads and trampling over the plants. Sadly this lovely farm had to close for the season (possibly never to reopen again). I am so disappointed this happened and my heart hurts for this farm and these flowers. I feel so lucky that these farmers opened up their magical sunflower farm to us and that I got to experience it (and to do so with my kids). I hope that they do reopen one day and that I can go back again as it was truly such a beautiful place.
