I've been very impressed with the recent slate of parties that Nora has been invited to. They aren't your typical bouncy house or run around the yard type event. These have been much more civilized, ladylike affairs.
First was a "spa party" where the girls got to do a foot soak, hand scrub, sparkly manicure, makeup and dress up in princess dresses. Us moms even got in on the action with a hand scrub and parafin wax treatment while sipping cocktails!
Then we went to a birthday tea at this super cute new-to-us tea parlor in Issaquah. The girls donned Unicorn headbands while sipping their own pot of tea (or cocoa, in Nora's case!) and eating cookies, scones and tiny sandwiches (choice of cheese, jam, and nutella).
Super fancy, right? Makes me worried about what she's going to want to do for her own party this year!

Fancy! She must've loved those parties!
ReplyDeleteBtw, these are in COMPLETE opposite of the type of parties Ian goes to. The boy parties are rowdy and the kids get all sweaty being active. The last ones he went to were at a trampoline jump parks, indoor batting cage/baseball fields, and a laser tag arena.
