Lily's 50's Elvis Birthday Party

This past Saturday, Lily had her 3rd birthday party (she turns 3 November 28.) I always start planning in July every year and this year when we asked her what she wanted, she always said an Elvis party. (My mom got her to loving Elvis and she loves Jailhouse Rock.) An Elvis party with a 50's theme was our plan and it turned out wonderfully.

We couldn't have asked for a prettier day and it was so easy to have a fifties party, so many ideas out there to help me out.

Here is Lily all dressed up in her poodle skirt from Ebay. She was so pretty and so grown up.


Here is some of the decorations and Lily's cake. The lady that made her first bday cake made this one and it turned out perfect. Very yummy too!


Here is Lily with her cousins, Erin and Jayla before the party.

We had a hula hoop contest and the kids were so funny! Lily loved it!

We had a very special guest at the party - Elvis himself dropped by! I found his outfit at a local discount store (Dirt Cheap) for $7!!

Elvis and his favorite little girl. Elvis was a hit and everyone thought he was so funny. We had a fun time watching him dance and entertain everyone.

Time to open presents. She got so much and was so sweet and thanked everyone individually.



Excited over her iron crowns that she got from Aunt Sue and Uncle Jackie. She thought they went on her head.

Everyone posed behind this car stand-up that my handy dad built.


It was a great party. Everything turned out perfect and it was a beautiful day.
