Our Fancy Nancy Party

Last Saturday we had the girls' birthday party.  Our theme was "Fancy Nancy," based on the books. So we had nine girls total, all dressed in their "fanciest clothes." It was so fun. 

Here are the birthday girls. I opened the dress-up trunks and they picked out what they wanted to wear. They looked so "fancy." And so darling.

In the first book, Nancy loves parfaits "which is fancy for ice cream sundaes." So that's what we served. Jonathan and Aunt Tami served up the ice cream sundaes but each girl had her own cup of sprinkles that she could put on her own ice cream. 

We read the book, ate our ice cream, colored a Fancy Nancy page, opened presents and played games. All the girls were so sweet and cute. 

All the girls looked so adorable. But the girl dressed in black and hot pink (Kaari) would have won the "Closest to Fancy Nancy in the Flesh" award, if there was such a thing. She looked just like her. Even had the leg warmers. Love it!

And Jonathan's mom and sister came, which was so sweet. I love this picture of Grandma!

Jonathan was supposed to have come home on that Saturday at 11 am. Our party was at 2, and he walked in the door at 2:15. I am so grateful that he made it and didn't miss the party.

And the girls got such beautiful gifts. They got a bit spoiled, which I think is ok on your birthday. (If everyone got a little spoiled on their birthday, I think the world would be a nicer place. ☺)

We are so thankful for all our friends, and all their little friends, who came to celebrate with us. 

And mostly we are thankful for Sami and Janie, that they came to our family, and we love to celebrate their birthdays!
