Princess Belle

SURPRISE!

 



Princess Belle came to the party (aka I hired her from a company that does this kind of stuff.)  ;)

 

Samantha's reaction was priceless and worth every penny that darn princess cost us ;)

 

 

 

 

 

 

She told stories.

 

And as you can see,

 

every single little eyeball was fixated and listening attentively to her.  All of us parents were thinking it would be awesome to have her come put the kids to bed at night.

 



 

And then.....she sang!  She sang an opera-like version of Beauty and the Beast.  Pretty brave Princess I would say ;)

 

They played Princess games.

 

 

Which won them princess prizes.

 

 

They even played the game Telephone which 5 year-olds don't quite know how to play yet.

 

 

But it was cute seeing them all whisper in each other's ears.

 

Instead of Duck, Duck, Goose, they played Belle, Belle, Beast

 

 

And all sorts of other games.

 

 

Cake time!

 

Belle cut the cake.

 

And then it was time for her to say good-bye and take off in her carriage

 

Which looked like the Walk of Shame on the West Side - sorry Belle, the exit could have been more graceful ;)

 

Presents happily distracted from the abrupt exit of Belle.

This is how she reacted to EVERY SINGLE GIFT.  Five is such a fun (and dramatic) age ;)

 

 

Happy 5th Birthday Samantha! 

 

P.S. The photo above is Sam with her Knight (T.J.) who claimed to be her Knight in "Shiny" Armour ;)
