Even before we went to Disneyworld Alyssa was in love with Mickey Mouse. Our trip just cemented her love for him. So, when it came time to plan her birthday party, what other theme could she want besides a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse party?
I love hanging streamers for birthday parties. And I loved using three different colors. Mickey Mouse loves primary colors, so we had red, yellow and blue streamers hanging. Alyssa was a little disappointed there weren't any green streamers, because that is her favorite color. I told her next year we could have a jungle theme for a party, and then there would be a lot of green. My intrepid little girl of course reminds me of this every couple of weeks.
I don't know why I decided to make the cake myself. It would have been so much easier to have a Mickey Mouse cake made by someone, anyone else. But I do like doing special things for my beautiful girls. And it was nice to make her a special cake for her special day.
For those of you who know the show, there are always puzzles to solve, and mouskatools to use. One of our puzzles was the land of disappearing shapes. They had to dance and stop in a shape when the music stopped. A shape disappeared every time until there was one shape left, which became the "key" for the next part. Dan was O'Toodles, bringing us our mouskatools. But since he doubled as photographer I don't have any pictures of him.
And of course, opening presents is fun for everyone.
Overall, I think it turned out very well. Happy birthday, my little three year old girl!
