Hazel's Birthday Weekend

When one turns 3, there is only one way to properly celebrate: Princesses and parties. And, if we can make it last the entire weekend, that would be even better!


To begin with, we need a cake. When asked what type of cake she wanted, Hazel said a princess cake. To many people, this means a sheet cake with a picture of a princess on it. Not to Megan. To Megan, it means, well, let's take a look at the pictures:

The decoration process

The detail work

The finished front

The finished back

And the look of awe!

Friday evening we decided to go out for the first party. We went to Red Robin where we had a tasty dinner. After our burgers, the servers came out, sang to Hazel, gave both girls balloons, and Hazel got a sundae. Not too shabby.



Hooray! Ice cream and balloons!

Lisey got her own fancy cup of milk

And the balloons made it all the way home (they did pop a little later)

Saturday morning, we went to swimming class. It wasn't one of the official birthday parties, but Hazel and Elise still put on a good show for Grammy!

Hmmm....that doesn't sound like much fun...

Ahhh, appropriate foot placement got rid of that problem.

And, this is how we spent the last 20 minutes of our 30 minute class.


When we got home from swimming class, we had a little lunch, and cut into the cake...
and then attacked her presents. She was not left wanting...

Hazel starts slowly...

Then really gets going with a boxful of beads

And culminating with a chest full of dress-up clothes. Her she models her new Snow White dress

Even Lisey is got in on the act with her own princess dress (Thanks Aunt Ann!)

Does this give you an idea of what we have to play with now? Anyone who is interested can come over and play whenever you like!


For the final party of the day, we went to one of Glenn's coworker's house who was having a princess party for her two-year-old.
A fairy godmother and beautiful little princess.

Snow White riding on a royal pony.

And they had a bouncy-castle! Snow White is an expert when it comes to bouncing!

And she is willing to teach her little princess sister!
