Pink Lemonade Party Pour Deux


I craved Pink Lemonade while pregnant with Nelle.  It was the perfect combination of sweet and tart.  So the theme for Nelle's 2nd Birthday was set in stone before I even met her :)  This party is double the fun because one of my best friends in the world, Meredith,  had her little girl Alexandra a week after Nelle, and once we moved back to Virginia I knew it would be great fun for these spunky little girls to share a birthday party.


The invites were designed by uber-talented Tracy from Paper & Ink Designs.  I gave her the theme and details, and she created the invite as well as the super cute goody-bag labels.  Love how it turned out, and I used it as the template for both the awning for the lemonade stands and the sugar cookie design.

Pink and Yellow Lemon-Shaped Sugar Cookies. 





Pink Lemonade Cupcakes with Pink Lemonade Frosting and candied Lemon Slices.  





Sweets and Treats!  Most of the yummy pink and yellow treats were Dollar Store Finds.



I made tiny lemonade stands to label the dishes on the table.  Yummy mini-hot dogs,  mini-BBQ chicken sandwiches, fruit kabobs and mini corn-on-the-cob on a stick.  And of course, no pink lemonade party would be complete without some pink lemonade :)

The girls had a little tea party on the stands, and Nelle now keeps all of her tea sets inside the stand in her room.  I love that she can still use it after the party.
