I’m all done with my friend’s wedding as of yesterday. While I am still here in VA I will share pictures from all of those events and my girl’s birthday parties. I’m going to start with the parties today.
She really likes cats, so at my parents we threw a Fancy Cats party.
The cat cupcakes were easy to make. I used sugar wafers covered in frosting for the ears, mini m&m’s for the nose and eyes, pretzel sticks for the whiskers, and gel icing for the mouth.
Lots of Kit Kats were around because she will call kitty cats kit cats.
To cover up some of the pictures on their wall, I just wrapped it like a present.
I put all all kinds of pictures of cats on the wall. I wanted it to look like a picture wall in a cats house. I used scrapbook papers for the backing.

Then, I asked her to give the baby a kiss, and the baby went in for it too! Awe, a first kiss ๐
Party #2
Immediately saw one of her presents and had to take it wither her to the table.
The amazing cake her aunt made her (she really likes pandas too!).
She really really really liked the cake

Amazing how much time, energy and soul you put into daughter party! I am total opposite of you – I am waiting for the time when my girls will go out with few of their friends to celebrate!
Those little cat cupcakes look so cute! And I love the idea of covering pictures on the wall.
Loved the cat party idea! My daughter goes by Kate or K.D. and we call her KD Kat, she loves our 3 cats, I’ll have to revisit the cute cat picture wall, you are so creative!

Hello there! I came to your blog from your feature on CTTC! Congrats!
I love the kitty cupcakes, and the whole theme of your fancy cat party! I have a penchant for the combined cat and cupcake theme! And the pictures on the wall are really effective!
