So the expectation was "fancy"... didn't need to be princess... didn't need to make sense... just get out whatever sparkles and glam you can find and put it on...
And be at Katie's house by 1pm.
Katie will be 4 years old this coming Friday, the 19th. With wonderful ignorance she simply asked for a "Fancy Nancy" party and we made it happen -- no big event. No parents. Just 6 girls in all their glam going through outfits like water for two and half hours.
We decorated our own Fancy place mats whilst sipping pink lemonade in wine glasses, eating orange cherry chip muffins, and grazing the small array of fruit chunks threaded onto fancy toothpicks...
Katie blew out the candles atop her miniature white with pink polka-dots cupcakes and then went to unwrapping the magnificently small pile o' gifts.
It was a wonderful day with wonderful friends... William had a play date with Dylan and Benjamin couldn't have been happier... take a look...
If you say "Happy Birthday" to Katie, be warned. She will explain to you that today was the "celebration of her birthday" but she's not really four until Friday.
Thank you everyone that came... we had a wonderful day and Katie felt so cherished --
Ava - the craft o' miscellaneous couldn't have been more perfect for the Craft Queen herself...
Kylee - the ladybug home will be so much fun to take part in... even William can't wait to get his hands on it!
Ella - Katie loves to paint!! Craft anything and everything when it comes to her PLUS jewelry?! Thank you...
Bella - thank you from Katie AND HER MOM. She will love doodling and coloring in the car with her new Barbie coloring roll.
Tia - the plate, the jewelry and the wonderful plaque are so personal and mean a lot. Thank you for the thoughtfulness you put into those things! Katie loves that she recognizes her name on things now... that meant a lot to her to be able to read the plaque!
Blessings to you, Fancy friends.

Krista! How cute! What a wonderful idea. I love that its not a 'princess' party as we are trying to avoid all princess stuff as possible (some say its going to happen, but not if try!). Looking at the party gave me hope for girly, but way fun!
I love it! The girls had such a great time being 'fancy'! Dylan can't wait till William can come play again. I love you're blog, very cool!
Happy Birthday Katie! I can't believe the last time I saw you, you still wore diapers! What a beautiful young lady you're turning into! Well done Schei parents, well done.
