An old farmhouse table draped in shabby pink linen
Set with a petite stack of my grandmothers vintage china
– perfectly pretty and meaningful-
& a birthday cake on a silver platter.
Lots of birthday wishes and hugs for a very special girl!
We celebrated my daughters birthday this year
a couple of times to accommodate different schedules
The kids always like to say they have a ‘week-long celebration’
🙂
For Ansley’s party ~party, she decided to invite just a couple of
her close friends over for a sleepover, cake and fun.
A pretty in pink table in the dining room for party food
and the outside table was draped in white tulle.
But instead of party pictures at the table
we had several giggly girls who were running around having fun
who didn’t want to sit for pictures~
let alone cake and ice cream.
🙂
So I am sharing just a few pictures I took before the party
and my girl on her birthday.
She picked out a white cake with whipped frosting for her party (delicious! )
but I found these frosted gourmet cupcakes at the bakery.
Mint chocolate chip is her favorite and they were perfect
for her real birthday sweets.
Love this precious baby girl.
🙂
It’s been crazy busy here lately and I am so behind on so many things!!
I apologize for not making my usual visits to everyone~ I will be stopping by shortly.
This Summer has been a bit crazy for sure and I cannot believe
that school is starting up again in just a few short weeks!
Where did the lazy days of Summer go already!?
Hope to see you tomorrow for Feathered Nest Friday!
