This past Sunday Nick and I celebrated our daughter turning 3! I know I have said this with every child (and there are 3 of them) but as a parent it is hard to watch your child grow up...
With every birthday that passes you remember the day they were born, the first time they started to crawl, walk and talk The years seem to flash right before your eyes. Someone please tell me know to bottle them to keep them just where they are in life.
Elaine is no different. She is our only daughter and completely into Princesses! And what kind of parents would we be if we didn't have princesses at her birthday...the normal ones!
Elaine and I first met the Princesses (Belle and Cinderella) at out churches Mother/Daughter tea back in March. I had no idea that tea party would open an obsession into what is now Elaine's "new" world. Every Princesses themed shirt shorts, bottle, umbrella...you name it is hers! I have created a monster.

So with that said I got in touch with our church and booked Belle and Cinderella for her birthday. Keep in mind please that this is the one "BIG" birthday party she will have until her sweet 16. I am hoping the boys will take their time in finding that one big thing. At least Grayson will because he's only 10 months...LOL.
Nick and I told no one that Princesses were coming. We wanted no one to ruin the surprise. I knew what time they were arriving. And so did our photographer....yes I know we had a photographer too, I wanted to make sure with all the running around I would be doing we wouldn't miss anything. Lucky for me I knew a friend who was will to come and help out.

To see her face when she saw them come up the driveway was priceless! She paused for a few moments as if she thought she was dreaming...then took off running to them. As a parent it made my heart melt! I can only image what she felt like for that day.
The Princesses were amazing! They did a craft with the kids, read them a story and danced with them before leaving, Here are a few more photos from Elaine's Princess Birthday Party. I hope you enjoy :)
