Daisy Troop in the Kalamazoo Holiday Parade

Julie's Birthday Party

Julie dances while grandpa Ray plays the piano for her
Julie had some wild dance moves
Preparations take place in the kitchen
And the dining room was all set for Julie's Tea Party
Fruit that Aunt Britt put together
And Unce Brent's wonderful Deviled Eggs
Jenny and Britt work on decorating treats for the Tea Party
Grandpa Ray really fit the part well with his decorated hat
Julie's table setting for the Tea Party
Jenny had worked hard to design a hat decorating station for the girls
And Julie spent some time playing with her princesses
Aunt Britt and Uncle Brent work to make some wonderful sandwiches
I think Jenny really took her part seriously!!!!
The kids were delighted to see a special guest they haven't seen in some time: Brook!
Julie tried to ride away…. but was stopped by a princess...
Julie loved making a hat
and she looked even better when she added some gloves...
A beautiful Princess named Sleeping Beauty even dropped in
And spent some time with the girls too….
Julie was so happy to have won the 'musicial chairs' game
And the girls did a little dance circle
ANd Julie got to open presents
She even got a Princess Tea Party
Portraits with Parasols
More Portraits with Parasols
The Head Princess enjoying some fruit
More smiles from Julie
Her birthday cake - actually, a bunch of cupcakes put together in the shape of a tea pot….
And she loved blowing out all three of her candels….
My favorite type of frosting…. the kind you can eat with your fingers...
So much stimulation after a long day of tea parties and princesses….
