Princess Birthday Party!

My friend Sally and I went shopping at Christmas and we talked about Birthday parties. I told her that as an adult I had never had a party...I know..poor me! Anyways, I said, if I ever had one, it would be a Princess party....

Well, my friend Sally threw me the princess party of all parties. It was sooo much fun. My dearest friends were there and we just had the best time!

Every girl ought to have at least one princess party in her lifetime!

There were pearls, and beads, and tieras...everywhere! The chandie was decorated with boas and charms that said queen and crowns...


See the sweet picture? Sally is a teacher and she told her girls in her class to make pictures....they were hanging in the dining room...it was precious! Look at that darling pig complete with tutu!!

Here we are...the court!!

I received such wonderful gifts....but this was a favorite...it is a Life magazine from February 1954....originally cost 20 cents.
One of God's greatest gifts is that of girlfriends....I love each one of them!

Oh Ceekay you have the dearest friends in the world. I am so happy that they did this special party for a very special lady. This just warms my heart.
And can you tell them for me that I've never had a big girl Birthday party either.

Oh sweetie it looks like you just had the best time ever. I am so tickled. (I have never had an adult birthday party either.) What fun you have had. I am so thrilled for you. You are a Queen indeed, and look at your beautiful court. Oh what fun. I love the little pig with her tutu and her crown. So precious and pink, your favorite color. I love your sash and your crown. You have made a beautiful Queen indeed.

Oh hugs and many kisses sweet friend. Happy Birthday again. I love it. Hope your week continues to be special. Much love...Sherry
