The "soiree" (that's fancy for party) was based on Fancy Nancy's favorite things. We decorated with fuchsia, French and flowers. Boas and beads were plentiful. The young girls came dressed in their frilly outfits and the adults added "accessories" to their attire as they entered the bash.
The hors d'oeuvres and frilly toothpicks were plentiful (don't feel too bad for the guys who had to deal with the frills and dressing up..we had manly meatballs and little smokies to help balance out the tea sandwiches!). We even had a "parfait bar" in addition to pink sprinkled cupcakes for dessert.
The kids had fun in the "day spa" area, trying on lotions and pretending to put on makeup. They made fruit-loop/licorice bracelets and had fun swinging at the flower-shaped pinata.
The highlight of the party was when our friend Anna Marie came in dressed as "grown up Fancy Nancy". She read a Fancy Nancy story to the kids with "Frenchie" her (fake) poodle and did a great job entertaining us all.
The party was a success and most of all, our girl was blessed. Thank you to all who celebrated with us (in person or in prayer!).
(Sorry I didn't get better pics, my camera isn't working the greatest. Mr. Wagner, hint...hint...hint. Thanks to Wally Curtis for capturing some of the special moments above).
