Fancy Nancy Party

So I am finally taking a few minutes of out a crazy month to update my blog. Yes...I am also finally posting our Fancy Nancy pictures since I have had so many people asking to see them...who have probably by now given up on me! HA! We did have a wonderful time at Emma's 5th Birthday Fancy Nancy Tea Party. We had 12 little Fancy Nancy's attend our tea and I think each one of them had quiet a memorable experience. As each guest arrived in their most Fancy Like Nancy outfits, they received a necklace, ring, feather boa, fan, and a tutu puff hair bow to add to their ensembles. We then had the girls sit around and read one of the Fancy Nancy books, just in case any of our little party guests was not familiar with her and her special way of making life fancy. After this we discussed different secret messages that we could say by using our fans and practiced each one. The girls also each had a turn at trying to walk with high heels and a book on their heads. After this they were all seated at our Fancy Tea Table for their big girl tea party. We served them finger foods such as pink candied popcorn, apples and caramel dip, cookies, tea pot shaped peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, cupcakes and of course hot tea (and lemonade for those who preferred it.) We also had a parfait making parlor to match where Fancy Nancy went to have parfaits ( a fancy word for ice cream Sunday's.) Each girl was given a cute dessert bow filled with ice cream and she could pick her own toppings to fancy it up! After opening all her presents ( I had no idea there were so many Fancy Nancy items out there in the stores) the girls played upstairs in the playroom for a bit before their parents arrived to take them home. I twas a wonderful tea party and a great way to celebrate that our sweetie is no longer out little toddler, but has officially begun her time as a little girl. Oh my! Two tea parties down and so sad to say that before we know it we will be doing the 5th birthday tea for Miss Caroline as well. This just happens way too fast!
