My little Ellie celebrated her 3rd birthday this weekend! She decided she wanted to have a Dora Party. As many of you know, I am not a fan of commercial parties, but alas, Dora and Diego are the main people in her life besides her mom, dad, brother and sister. I really had no choice in the matter. Here are the highlights. I wish I would have been able to get better pics, but a house full of 3 year olds tend to put a rush on things:)

| The Backdrop was simple! Just yellow, orange and pink streamers. |
 |
| My first attempt at "color flow" (with my mother's help!) |
 |
| I ordered the favor bags from Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop/designsbyLH. I then glued the faces on the backs using foam. The backpack for the girls and rescue pack for the boys! |

| Super excited to find these! |
 |
| I cut the Dora characters out of books I bought at a thrift store for .69 cents. They always make great toppers! |
 |
| Everything looks good on skewers! |
 |
| I made these cake stands from plates I found at Hobby Lobby! |
 |
| This Lama hung out with my all week for great color inspiration. I was really sad to see him beaten to death:( |
 |
| The kids had maps they had to follow to find some treasures. They had to..... |
 |
| run through the butterfly garden..... |
 |
| over the bridge..... |
 |
| and down the slide! It was chaotic fun! |
 |
| Swiper even made an appearance! The kids were quick to stop him! |

Everyone had a blast!! This was one of my favorite parties.
Pictures do not show the salsa chicken and margaritas!!!
