Tea for Tot

You are cordially invited to Princess Carlee's #3 Birthday Party

All Prince, Princesses, and even Pirates are invited to the Royal Location to celebrate this joyous occasion! 

I knew Carlee was all girl when I took her to the party and she said 'look at my table'. 

*** 

This flower centerpiece was the same one made for me on my wedding day.  (I had a Cinderella wedding.)

What a joy to share it with Carlee on her very special birthday!

We found the perfect cake, but it was even more perfect when I found this doll tea set for a few dollars.

Time to Party:

Have you ever had tea and crumpets in the sand?

very filling

Cousin O. was a real help to us all.  

Castle Touring

Master P. (and his mom) helped me set up the royal party.

They are the best!!  

Who let Pirate Connor in the castle!?!

Pirate C. always makes Princess laugh.

Castle Design:  

Children really do have fun with boxes!

This sweet Princess is peeping at me from the drawbridge.

Carlee's Chandelier

Lately Carlee's favorite thing has been to put on her (too small) swimsuit and her (too small) tutu... and dance!  dance! dance!
She has been driving us crazy for two months now dancing to the same song, Chandelier by Sia,  accessed from the iPad. 
In case you haven't watched the video, it features a dancer from Dance Moms.  
This video is beautiful to watch, but you have to really understand the lyrics to understand the dark undertone.  The little girl in the video is a true talent!

While we are sick of the song, I have enjoyed watching my Carlee dance.

I made a video for her. She just loves to watch herself.
Dance Moms... here we come!
