This party was for my daughter for her third birthday. I am trying to keep birthday parties to just our family and close friends for as long as I possibly can before having to make the jump to her preschool friends and ultimately school friends once she hits elementary school, however, I want them to still be fun with lots of details and decorations for her to remember. I loved that she wanted to do a cowgirl party, as I love horses and of course she needed it to be pink – her favorite color.

I have to admit western-themed parties for little girls are such an alien idea to me, but it seemed that you were able to pull it off. I love that cowgirl with the head cutout :) Did you make or buy that?

We actually made it out of foam board by just drawing the cowgirl on, coloring it, and cutting out a hole for the face to fit through. Simple!

Hi KShields: Thanks for your reply. That is amazingly simple and it came out really beautifully!

I love it that you served fruits along with other treats!

Thanks! The fruit was actually the first thing to go too! I have done that for every party since and everyone loves it – plus it is super easy, and if you don’t have the time to cut all the different fruits you can always buy a cut platter at the supermarket and put it on the skewers yourself:)

Thanks for the idea. I have always been worried about having to serve nothing but sweets and more sweets at kids birthday parties because that seems to be the one thing they’d surely eat. Now I know fruits would sell, too.
