We had face painting, nail painting, and painting on paper. Everyone seemed to love everything, but the face painting was a hit!
Fingernail painting was the first thing Laela hit up and she thought it was pretty awesome too! 
So awesome, in fact, she wanted to do the same. She got out the paintbrush and watercolors. Then suckered Nanna into letting her "paint" her nails. Laela is so serious when she paints. :)
I set up a table with watercolors, crayons, markers, etc and the kids had art time. We loved seeing all of the fun creations the kids made!
Oh! Speaking of set up. This year's decorations were not my best, but I did get a few comments on how I used the fun, rainbow of colors throughout the house. Including them in the paper decorations, cupcakes, and assortment of food!
Laela enjoyed having everyone sing Happy Birthday to her and she did phenomenal blowing out her candles. I just knew Laela would LOVE a giant cupcake, but when it came time to eat it...she just wanted to lick the icing! What a dork. 
The cupcakes were a little time consuming, but I totally recommend doing them for a fun event. I found the how-to on another website, but with a little food gel...the colors were so vibrant! I loved them. :)
A little bit of sidewalk chalk, watercolors, and bouncing got everyone tired and ready for naptime. 
YEA for a successful birthday number three! (Oh...just for the record. Laela's favorite part...the nail polish.) :)PS - A big "THANK YOU" goes to Aunt Karri for taking pictures during the party! :)
