Anna loves her little pink bunny. She chews its ears, carries it around, and hugs it with all of her strength. We knew that her party needed to feature pink bunnies in honor of her little lovey.
I planned and plotted for weeks; then I gathered all of my confidence to bake Anna's cakes.
The bunny face is a strawberry cake with 7 minute frosting and tinted coconut. I used the same directions that moms everywhere use to make Easter cakes. The cupcakes are vanilla with pink buttercream frosting.
Each month, I take a picture of the kids on the date of their birth. This is an easy way to look back on how much they are growing and changing during those first few years. Check out the guest of honor posing by the cake...what a cutie!
Pink, pink, pink everywhere! We served bunny cracker snacks and pink juice boxes.
The frames are displaying a quote I liked and a copy of the invitation.
The quote is from Jane Austen: "Where shall we see a better daughter or a kinder sister or a truer friend."
Anna's smash cake (served at home on her actual birthday) was a giant cupcake!
She loved sticking her fingers into the cake and shoving big bites of frosting into her mouth! The candle says "Baby's First Birthday" and was among my Nana's baking supplies. Anna's middle name was chosen to honor my Nana, so I loved that a little bit of her was with us.
We cut snowflakes out of pink tissue paper to decorate the tables. Each guest received a chocolate bunny sucker from Goumas Confections, our favorite local candy store.
Anna had a lot of fun at her party and I loved planning all of those little pink bunny details for her!
