Princess Party

On Saturday, our Gabriela Joy turned 4 years old! I remember the day she was born feeling SO blessed that I had been given a little girl (I already had a darling little boy). I called my mom from the hospital in Chicago and said, "I got my girl!!!" And who knew what a girly girl she would have turned out to be.
We had a Princess party Saturday afternoon with 8 other little girls, and baby sister (the boys went off to see the new Oceans movie). What a calm, quiet, sweet little party it was too. All of the girls came dressed in their fanciest gowns, and became princesses for the day. Gabi sat by the door for the arrival of each quest and would marvel at each girl's beauty as they came in. To her cousin she said, "Oooooh, Eloisa, you look so beautiful!." It was so cute. We gave each girl a crown, read this darling story, decorated their scepters with stickers, had a tea party (they loved pouring their cranberry blueberry juice, I mean tea, and ate pink chocolate covered pretzels and fruit), did some dancing and playing, watched Gabi open her gifts, and had cake and ice cream. It was a wonderful time! Besides the crown, and scepter, Gabi gave out party favors of personalized paper dolls (I had so much fun making these on my mom's Cricut a while back), Princess fruit snacks, and two crown hair clips. The girls were tickled with their treats. I think Gabriela had a very special 4 year old birthday!
