Party Planning: Luau for the "Graduate"

My daughter Serina is nearing the end of elementary school, at the end of this month (very sad face)! I can't even believe I'm here?!? I can't believe I'm going to have a daughter in what they call now "Middle school". It seems like only yesterday I was walking her to her first day of pre-school. So as you can imagine, I'm totally FREAKING out! But anyways; her school isn't going to be having any kind of graduation, so I decided to have a small celebration for her. To honor the occasion, we decided on a Luau for her, her friends and some close friends/family. I have about 2 weeks to plan this, while I work on another small project, so I hope I can pull it off! I wanted to make it a cutesy kind of Luau and fortunately for me, tis the season! I just love Luau's, they're fun and colorful. Plus, we haven't had a Luau since Tahlia's first birthday! Here are just a few things that I have found, so far.
Floral Stirrers-$1.00 pk of 8 (Dollar Tree)
Flip Flop Lollipops-$1.00 pk of 6 (Dollar Tree)

Metal Tin Buckets $2.50 at Target
Weave Basket $2.50 at Target (perfect for the Hawaiian rolls)
