Two Birthdays and More!

Welcome to my Picture Perfect
Party Linky #80!

You can link your family friendly
photo post below.

It was Amanda's birthday on Friday and her party was on Saturday.
She wanted a My Little Pony birthday theme. My mom and
grandmother went to a party shop in the States (before we
arrived for a 5 week visit in July last summer) to take back
with us to South Africa. It's nice to be so organized. :)

I made the cake. I got the idea from Pinterest, thanks to Amanda
wanting to save pins on things that interest her. She has her own
board and it served me well!

As some of you know, I've begun making jewelry. My shop on
Etsy is called Alli Flair. Amanda designed little girl bracelets as
gifts for her friends and I helped her make them. She wanted
an identical one for her best friend, so you'll see that two
are the same.

I'm also wearing a necklace and bracelet in my birthday
photo that I made. It was my birthday on Monday.
I'm now 39 years old. Make sure you check out my
shop if you want to wear some flair!


Jessica, Amanda's big sister, took this photo.

Amanda's sisters did the decorations, so
that I could finish the cake in time.

These are the bracelets that Amanda designed and helped make.

Thanks, Cathy! It looks like you had a beautiful day for the waterfalls. I'll be linking my 1camera1mom. I'll also check out the featured photographer. Have a blessed week!
Happy Birthday to Amanda! Love the cake! Isn't it great to have older daughters to help with parties? For our Christmas party this year my girls were such a big help. My oldest daughter had a My Little Pony Birthday a few years ago. It's fun that girls still love them. Oh, and happy birthday to you too! :)

Thanks so much, Erin! It's neat that our kids are almost the same age. It's too bad we missed seeing each other this past trip to the States. Enjoy your week!
Happy birthday to your sweet girl! You did a great job on the cake!
