a princess party



On Sunday, Miss Frances Rose attended a party.


To celebrate her friend Katie's birthday, the girls were invited to her home for cake and party games. The invitation specified princess attire. Rosie was thrilled. During her long illness, she missed a number of her friend's parties. 'Not this one', she declared.


A few years ago, I gave away all of our assorted princess dress-up clothes to my nieces. In our dress-up box, we have lots of fairy, ladybug, assorted flowers, bumblebee, angels, mermaid, doctor, bridal and other finery remaining. No longer, any proper princess paraphernalia.


As part of their Spring line, Target had this pink tulle pouf dress. For far less than the cost of a princess dress at Disney, my friends. Check the clearance section for the silver sparkle maryjanes and the glittery tiara.

Miss Rosie, as you might've guessed, had a fabulous time at the party.

What a doll!!

It brings back such memories of all of our princess and dress up costumes.

Lucky you to still be experiencing all of that with your girl.

Thoughts for the day said...

That is JUST precious. Those are wonderful pictures and I am so glad she got to be a princess for a day.

Such sweet pictures. Love those sparkly shoes too. Josie has a father-daughter dance Saturday evening at her elementary school. It will probably be a wrestling match to get her into a girly dress and leave her batman mask at home.

What a sweet princess! My granddaughter absolutely loves dressing up in her princess dresses, something her mama never cared about. (Good thing as I certainly didn't have any princess dresses.)
