Another year around the sun and our daughter is now 6! Our quirky, sassy, lovable little lady still gives great hugs and is honing her sense of humor. She's as active as ever; still loving soccer and has taken up jazz/hip hop dance. Carsyn has grown 3.5 inches this year and the personality to boot. We are so proud of you baby girl, MWAH! 🎂🎈🎉💗😘
This year Carsyn choose unicorns and rainbows as her theme. She wanted to have it at Chuck E Cheese's, but last min were able to convince her to have a roller skating party! I began my search on Pinterest for ideas. Thankfully I already knew how to make a unicorn cake as it's very similar to her my little pony cake from last year. The majority of the items I found decor and goodie bag items online form Oriental Trading Co & Amazon and the balloons came from Party City.
The evite:
A Magical Day is on the Rainbow Way
Let's Celebrate with a Skating Birthday!
Carsyn's Party is Here at Last
So Lace up Your Skates & Come Have a blast!
Snacks, drinks and cake will be served.

For the Unicorn cake my daughter wanted pink cake, so we found strawberry cake mixes for the 3 layers and paired with with vanilla frosting. The unicorn horn and eyelashes I ordered off Amazon as a kit. For the rainbow hair I just found pre-made colored frosting in baggies and used that to pipe onto the top of the cake. Voilà ! For the cupcakes we used vanilla cake mix with vanilla frosting. I bought unicorn & rainbow cupcake rings off Amazon and rainbow gummy strips from the grocery store. This was probably the easiest I've had it when making my kids birthday cakes! The birthday girl LOVED it. 🦄 🌈

The goodie bags contained rainbow/unicorn tattoos, unicorn poop (jelly beans) and a vinyl unicorn character toy. Plus with the cupcake ring they had a nice assortment of favors.
Since the party was from 1-3pm, we only provided snacks, drinks and cake. The snacks consisted of rainbow gold fish, assortment of individual bags of chips and fruit snacks.
I even made sure the birthday girl was decked out with a rainbow skating unicorn shirt (Amazon), unicorn rainbow head band (which I found at Good Will, brand new for Halloween), and rainbow colored hair braid extensions attached to a hair-tie (CVS endcap find). It was magical how it all came together!
This year Carsyn couldn't wait to open her gifts at home, so we opened them at the venue and followed that up with a little more roller skating. Carsyn had a blast with her friends and was thrilled with all her presents. We truly appreciate all our friends and family that were able to join us and celebrate Carsyn's 6th birthday!
