GRACE'S PRINCESS PARTY - Food and Wish Granters

Every princess party deserves cute food!  2 Friends and a Party provided pink and purple cupcakes for the kids...along with sprinkles to decorate them!

Kari did some pinterest research and came up with some super cute food ideas!

Kari's cousin provided this awesome cake!  So cute!

We are so fortunate to be really involved with Make-a-Wish.  We were blessed with 2 AMAZING Wish Granters.

Our wish granters, Kari and Jennifer!

This is Ms. Gay!  We met her when we participated in Wish Night last May.  She not only came to the party...she wore her best princess attire!!

GRACE'S PRINCESS PARTY - Cinderella, Belle, and a Carriage

We participated in Make-a-Wish Wish Night last May and met some great people.  We got to meet, Natalie, who is a cancer survivor.  In reading her blog, I discovered that she loved princesses too.  Well...every good princess party needs a princess to attend!  I contacted Natalie's mom and she passed along some names to us.  Kari contacted to teachers (how awesome is that!) and suddenly we had Cinderella and Belle ready to attend our party!

Cinderella and Belle were awesome!  They parked down the street and made a big entrance walking up to our house.  They greeted Grace with a Princess Storybook that they had autographed and then assumed the position for lots (and lots and lots) of pictures.

Our awesome party planners brought this gorgeous carriage...because every princess needs a carriage!!

Belle and Cinderella were such sports in taking pictures with everyone.  Even after all of the girls changed their clothes, they hung around at the party and mingled with the kids.

One of my favorite moments of the whole party.....  I was looking everywhere for Bennett.  I couldn't find him.  Finally, I looked out the front door.  He was sitting in the carriage, dressed as Flynn Rider from Tangled, and just taking it all in.  Such an awesome memory for me.

GRACE'S PRINCESS PARTY - Grace's Princess Transformation

As I stated before, Grace didn't know that we were having a party for her.  After our trip to Sweet and Sassy, we went and ran a few errands.  When we pulled into the driveway, there was an amazing carriage sitting on our front yard.

What is that thing in our yard??

VERY surprised and a little bit shy at all the attention

GRACE'S PRINCESS PARTY - The Clothes!

2 Friends and a Party showed up with these amazing dresses and shoes for the girls to wear.  They asked ahead of time for each girls size so the dresses were labelled and ready for each girl.

After each girl was dressed, the lined up on the stairs and awaited Grace's arrival.  Once she got changed, we had the Presentation of Princesses.  (and princes)

GRACE'S PRINCESS PARTY - The Decorations

2 Friends and a Party graciously donated this party to Grace as her send-off party.  They provided dresses, shoes, cupcakes, crafts, games, and all the decorations.  OH MY GOODNESS!!  And these weren't just any decorations.  They were absolutely gorgeous...nicer than I had at my wedding.  Fresh flowers were everywhere.  I couldn't believe my eyes when I walked into my house.  It was transformed.  The pictures don't do it justice!

The boys had knight helmets and swords.  They made fire-breathing dragons.  So cute!

The girls made tiaras and wands.  Adorable!

Next up....princess dresses!
