Raya turned three! She had a beautiful princess themed party, and as a funny coincidence we noted that at least 4 of the moms wore black T-shirts – maybe as a subconscious answer to too much princess stuff in our daughters lives…
Raya blew all candles out at once!
Leilani started out nicely, eating like a big girl with a spoon.
The cake was really tasty.
“I’m all done with my spoon…” When she was all done with the cake too it was time to change her dress.

Raya went first, then everybody got a turn with the piñata. To my surprise Leilani was happy to hit it (after seeing the other girls do it too)—I suppose the reason was that it was a heart with printed princesses, and not in the shape of a princess, unlike the Elmo piñata a long time ago. The sad irony is that this was a “violence-free” piñata: the children are supposed to pull the ribbons to open it up, and hitting it did nothing.
Loot!
