a Halloween equation

What do you get when you take one family
and add 4 Disney Princess Costumes +
one pair of maternity leggings +
one can of red hair spray +
a half of a birthday cake +
a half dozen pink cupcakes +
2 pairs of spanxx +
10 safety pins +
5 tiaras +
7 magic wands +
3 vases of pink carnations dipped in pink glitter +
2 glass slippers
and then subtract any inhibitions?
You get our Halloween Half-Birthday Princess Tea Party.
It was magical,
and reminded me of just how much I love my family.
And don’t worry,
I will be treating you with photos a bit later.
But, for now, let your imaginations run wild,
because wild, it was.
With Love,
The Little Mermaid

until the Princess tea to end all Princess teas.
It’s not every day that a certain mini baby,
who just so happens to be named for a Disney Princess,
has her first Halloween,
which also
just so happens to be during the month of her half birthday.
There my have been an invitation that looked a little something like this:
Hurry! Hurry! Don’t be late,
for a special Princess’s Half Birthday date!
At half past 11 at the grandparents’ house
(before your horse turns back into a mouse)
for a Princess Tea party, costumes required,
so put on your very best royal attire!
No poison apples or wicked queens,
just a chance to celebrate Baby’s first Halloween!
We hope to see you in your costumed glory,
and help us write the chapter of our 6 month Princess Story!
I may have had something to do with it.
I may be donning red hair, a purple bikini and a pair of child’s-sized fins tomorrow.
We may be spending the night at my parents’ house, so that we are there, bright and early, to celebrate the special day.
This may be what my overnight bag looks like
Or, maybe not.
I’ll keep you posted.
And until then,
I have a dinglehopper to polish!
