A Celebration Fit For A Queen!

Looks like we meet, again, for another "Wordful Wednesday" hosted by Angie over at 7 Clown Circus. What fun it is to share some pictures that we want to tell about! Pop on over and take a look around...you might never want to leave!

Now, the photos I'm sharing today were taken when Abby celebrated her 8th birthday. We threw her a "medieval" party. I say we, but it was hosted by a party planner, of sorts. She booked different kinds of creative parties for both girls and boys. All of the girls got to pick out a dress to wear when they arrived, complete with their choice of a tiara, hat, or head wrap (for lack of a better word!). They, also, got to pick out necklaces and bracelets to wear. Here they are all decked out. Notice how the table was set very elegantly with "fine china" and "crystal goblets". The lady standing up is the one who ran the whole party...and did a fantastic job! Abby is sitting right in front of her with her head turned to the side.Here's a group shot of all the girls...it, actually, got put in the local newspaper!
Here's the Princess herself waiting to be lavished in gifts!
The girls played some games from the medieval era and learned about life back in those times. I would have to say it was one of the best parties she's ever had! Of course, as we were about to leave, the lady who hosted the whole shindig, came over to Chris and me and insisted we look the part, too. So, for the sake of my daughter, whom I love dearly, I risked every ounce of my dignity by putting on the goofiest looking hat EVER! I present to you the "royal family"straight from Tennessee...
Oh, I'm never going to live this down!
