Allison is three! 
We celebrated by inviting three little princesses into our home for a Rapunzel party...




The cake
(Can you guess what the tower is made of?)




(Rice Krispy treats covered in fondant)







Disney sells an expensive Rapunzel hair tiara for little girls to wear. But when I saw a yarn braid online (used as a party decoration), I thought that might be the way to go. I just added a dollar store hat and elastic under the chin, and helped the girls glue in their choice of artificial flowers. It worked pretty well (and hopefully it's more durable than the Disney alternative).

                                                                     Four little Rapunzels!



We read the Tangled story...




played "Don't Eat Pete" with cereal...



... and played "find Pascal."
The girls made necklaces and let their hair over the edge of the "tower" (our bannister), 
then played with floating lanterns (yellow balloons).



After the party, Allison wore her Rapunzel outfit all afternoon. Happy 3rd birthday, Allison!
