It's no surprise that Elia wanted a Frozen-themed birthday this year! I know everyone kiddo is sick of loves Frozen too! Her birthday was held at Artful Mayhem Studio in downtown Keller. You can check out their site by clicking here! So here are the end results!
The kids started off with an ice breaker poster:
Then each artist worked on Elsa's coronation crown! I wish I could take credit for that idea, but it was the studio's...good call!
I love the colors all over this little studio! Art on the walls, paint on the aprons and tables. It's a perfect place to be a kid! Except that.....
...this was a party full of INTENSE artists!
We had to remind everyone to breathe and have fun!
The atmosphere was so intense and serious that I finally turned on the Frozen soundtrack to lighten the mood! This kiddos were not kidding! This was serious business!!
This is a mom's paradise! I was as neurotic as usual calm as a cucumber.
(Feel free to insert your own comments here about how stress-free you think I can actually get!)
One of the biggest blessings about being a mom is sharing moments like these with your child. I remember the anticipation and excitement of a birthday party as a kid. I love that Elia has special friends to surround her and make her feel loved on her special day.

This is the part where I reminded her this was fun and enjoyable! :)

| This is the moment where Elia said, "Mom, I only want Elsa on the cake". And I quickly replied, "It's not about you right now, sweetie. It's about mommy's attempt at a Pinterest-worthy photo of your cake". I said that. To my daughter. At her birthday party. It's a good thing she totally gets me. Thank you my sweet girl! |

| The beloved Frozen cake! Special thanks to Stephanie with Frosted Garden Sugar Studio and Bakery for Elia's perfect cake! |
After mommy/s failed search of the entire metroplex for Frozen figurines,
a wonderful neighbor let us borrow hers!
Thank goodness for neighbors who save day!
Each party guest had to guess the number of gum balls in the container! It was a spontaneous time filler that ended up being a highlight of the event! Sometimes it just works out as it should!
Forced-fun photos for the blog.
All in all, one of the best birthdays. Who am I kidding, they've all been fantastic. Isaac and I are blessed beyond measure to be able to honor the birth of our incredible daughter!
How fortunate we are that she calls us Mommy and Daddy!
Aprons hung, car packed with kiddos, and off we went! Perfection.
