Fancy Shmancy

Just because I'm the coolest mom in the world, I decided to host a little Fancy Nancy party for Alayna and her fancy little friends (thanks for the idea Dearie!). It was a very fancy day, complete with manicures, a tea party, purse decorating, Fancy Nancy readathon, and a bunch of posh little girls twirling to the music of the Disney princesses. The fancy girls are Alyssa, Makai, Clarissa, Brooklyn, Alayna, and Brenna. Avery was also dressed very fancy but gracefully declined the photo op.

Apparently being fancy isn't everything in life. Sunny, Alayna's little cousin, was looking very glamorous but gloomy when her mom stepped out the door for a few minutes. She was trying to be brave!

Doesn't Alayna look stunning with her tipsy tiara and sparkly dress. I need to teach her how to put her pinky finger up when sipping her apple juice, though.

The tea party menu included pigs in a blanket, jell-o jigglers, fruit, and cute pink cupcakes. Alyssa shed her fancy dress by this point and was down to a pink t-shirt, white undies, and high heeled glass slippers. Just out of the picture was Makai, who had also shed her fancy dress due to ichiness. She, however, only had the white undies under the gown, thus she isn't in the photo.

Here is fancy Mr. Eli showing off his tremendous sitting skills. He is 5 months old today, after all, so I had to get him in this post. I know he looks quite steady and sure of himself, but he did fall over on his big ol head as soon as I snapped the picture.

And this is me in my fanciest (aka brightest most flowy) gown and updo. I'm dancing with my prince, of sorts.

After all the fanciness was over, Alayna had a pretty new purse all blinged out with self-adhesive jewels and puff paint. She also came away from the event with a fancy little sugar high.

Thanks to all the moms and fancy girls for coming to our party and making it so fabulous! Let's do it again sometime, but at someone else's house!
