It is hard to believe that our sweet angel is 6 years old. When we brought her home from the hospital 6 years ago it was a beautiful sunny day just like the day of her birthday party this weekend.
I love a good theme and some may say I love them too much!
AnnaKate’s birthday party was the day before Easter so I went with a chocolate bunny theme.
The Decorations

The Yummy Food
To do something a little different I decided to do my usual sweets and a box lunch for our picnic lunch.
A beautiful bunny cake…
That never made it to the party!!! Unfortunately, the bunny got a big head from all my ohhing and ahhing over her and her head fell off!!!! Oh well…I just made do and put a ceramic bunny on the cake for the party. I sure am glad I had pictures!
Chocolate bunnies
Bunny Brownie Bites
Bunny cookies for favors
The Table
The Boxed Lunches
Little Bunny Lunches: Rabbit shaped PB&J with a marshmallow tail, carrots and cheddar bunny crackers.
Big Bunny Lunches: Chicken salad croissant, fruit cup and chips.
One of my favorite parts was having everyone picnic on quilts.
Egg Hunt
At the beginning of the party, the guests decorated a bag for the Egg Hunt.
Bunny
Of course to complete our theme we had to have a bunny!! The kids loved him.
The MOST special part of the party…the GUESTS!
We had a wonderful party thanks to all of our special friends and family who came. It made AnnaKate feel so special and that is what we wanted!
Billy and I married in 1998 after dating for 6 years. In 2006 we adopted AnnaKate. We were lucky enough to meet her birth mother and take her home from the hospital. At about 4 months old, AnnaKate was diagnosed with Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome. Through all of AnnaKate's struggles and delays she surprises and delights us daily! Thanks for marking this spot and coming back often to check in on us.
