~Fancy Piper's Birthday Soiree~
Twas the night before the party and all through the house, not a creature was stirring....well...that's not exactly true..sometimes a fancy girls Mummy is still stirring..but it was worth it!
I mean, someone had to get the house 'fancified' for the party after all...there were curtains to hang, and chandeliers to adorn...but we made it in time...whew!

The morning of the party we wisked Piper off to have a surprise makeover at the local kid's salon, curls and glitter, purple and pink extensions and irredescent butterfly hairclips...
"ooh la la I feel so posh!"
Once all the girls had arrived, we started the party with a story to put everyone in the right frame of mind...a FANCY frame of mind!
After the story the girls split into groups...taking turns at crafting their very own tiaras, and having their nails painted and lips glossed at the 'Ooh la la spa de beaute'

Chief beautician Leanne and Mom to one of Piper's pals Ellie 'glitterfies' some of the guests - always good to have an extra set of hands helping!
TIARA CRAFT 101

"um Mummy, aren't fancy girls supposed to have tiaras made for them?"

some very fancy party guests looking glamorous.
TIME FOR LUNCH
Well, surprisingly each and every child devoured their entire lunch, we had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches cut into the shape of butterflies, 'green popcorn', grapes, mini pizzas, cheese kebobs and fancier than fancy 'pink fizzy grape juice' which the children aptly called 'pink fizzy' but out of everything, the children were most interested in the....CAKE!

and you thought it couldnt be prettier...look inside, decadent chocolate cake with raspberry filling!
YUMMO!TRES TRES CHIC

All the guests left with a bar of Fancy Nancy chocolate

and a lifesize 'Fancy Piper doll'....just kidding, but this photo was too wierd not to post.

One of the cutest moments came as one of Piper's classmates from pre-school was walking down the stairs...she looked up at Mike and said...

"You look like a Prince, can I please hold your hand"

priceless

What a great idea for a party! Since it looks like so much fun, I'm adding it to the list for the future. Thanks so much.

Cake looks fab, too.

For now, I remain in Princess and Pirate hell, which is this year's chosen theme.

Kind regards,

Carol and Taylor
