Lynne created a cool book mobile, and a bunch of decorations from pages of some classic children’s stories. Old kids’ books were also all over the house.
Eliza sported a book-themed skirt made by her Gram.
Reading “Tangled” even though she hadn’t seen the movie yet.
Eliza got some princess puzzles, and put them together repeatedly for the next few weeks. She really likes puzzles, and we had to get her some with 50 pieces to challenge her.
The food include “worm” pasta salad, fruit salad, a “dirt” pudding, and, of course, chocolate cake
Drinks were apple, mint, tea punch served in mason jars
Two days before the party was Eliza's actual birthday, and she was thrilled to open some "princess" presents. It had only been two months since our Disney visit and time in Florida where we learned that the best place to buy kids' things is a Goodwill store in Florida. Thanks to all those wonderful grandparents, the Goodwill we went to had so many great princess things for lower-than-garage-sale prices. Eliza received a set of Disney fairy outfits, complete with jewelry accessories, wings, and headbands. The sets were red, green, and blue, and our astute little girl realized those were the same colors of Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather from Sleeping Beauty. She also got a wand, Disney books, and a Disney pretend oven that uses magnets to make cakes and cupcakes "magically" rise. We love Goodwill, and we love that Eliza loves "the treasure store," too.
