princess festival 2012

every year for the last 3 years i've taken elaina to the princess festival for her birthday.  so the thursday before we got free tickets to go!!  she was so excited.  lex says he wants to go but he wouldn't enjoy it at all.  lol  ally was going to come with us but she needed a break after the trip to page az. and going out and doing things and missing her nap for days.  she was very happy staying home.  

.

she got to ride in a horse drawn carriage this year and it was a really fun ride.  :)  and she got to dance with the princesses.  she was in heaven.  but she was so shy all day but wanted the attention so badly!!

this is mad hatter coloring with elaina in the maze. 

we got her face painted to look like a butterfly and i made her flower crown she wore.  she dressed up like repunzel and wanted flowers in her hair.

we had a couple groups sing happy birthday to her.  and anyone who past her said happy birthday.  she loved it.  :)

at the very end of the day we played in the water fountain.  always one of the highlights for her.  this year she put her head in and got totally soaked!!  we stayed the whole time this year and she even stayed awake on the car ride home!   i guess she's big now  :)
