Fairy Tale Tea Party


We celebrated Chloe's fourth birthday last weekend.  As I was searching the area for something fun to do (to do, to do) I found out that The Magic House has an annual Fairy Tale Tea Party with Cinderella and it just happened to fall on her birthday.  Bonus!


They served all the girls apple juice (with lots of sugar cubes) and baked goods. Cinderella, The Fairy Godmother, and Prince Charming put on a short play and then they went around to each table signing autographs and taking pictures. Chloe was so nervous about meeting the real Cinderella. "She's just too pretty, Mommy."


(Observe my forsight: I bought that Cinderella dress on clearance the day before I found out about the tea party  Nice.)

After tea we broke into Cinderella's "own little corner" and took some pictures.


Then Chloe got right to work fixing this car.


Being Four is AWESOME!  (Aren't those glass balloon sculptures the coolest?)

She enjoyed all of her cards and gifts from her family.  Jeff's mom sent her four princess crowns and she opened a different one up until the day of her birthday.  This was the one I saved for her actual birthday:

You can't tell, but she's wearing two princess dresses at once.  She wore them both over her pajamas to sleep that night. 

I must confess that I don't understand boys.  They are super fun, but a big mystery to me.  I really "get" Chloe and am grateful that she has brought balance to the force in our family.

Ah, this is what I am looking forward to. Sign me up for dressing up and tea parties! The Magic House is a Children's Museum? I need to see if we have anything as cool as that tea party. Happy Birthday, Chloe!

So very cool. Sipping juice with sugar cubes one minute and fixing cars the next. What more could a birthday girl ask for?! Tell Chloe that I said she is just as pretty as Cinderella and a whole lot cuter too :) How precious. Wish we had one of those places is our neck of the woods.

Fun birthday stuff! Aeli is now insisting that she needs her dress on and her hat on so she can "blow the cake!"

She does not yet own a princess dress or hat.... Guess I know what she needs for Christmas. :) Thanks Chloe.

Happy Birthday. 4 is totally better than 3, at least that is what I have been told.

Hooray! That is EXACTLY the kind of birthday party Chloe needed to have for number four. You DO get her. :)

Why did they make her work on a car? That seemed like it might be from a different event. Hmmm.

The Magic House is the coolest children's museum, ever. Admission to the tea party also included admission to the rest of the museum for the day. (To answer your question, Nicole.) I just loved how she looked fixing the car in her dress.
