Sedona had her 5th birthday party all plotted out to be super-girly with a Cinderella theme (and no boys invited, although Kevin got to stay). It was thrown by the Party Fairy, Marie Chen.
Sedona had a consultation with the Party Fairy about two months ago so that the Fairy would have enough time to plan all the magic. Sedona invited only girl friends -- and included Maven with the specification that Maven get her a present. (Maven eagerly agreed -- and got a couple of choice milk mugs on clearance at Target for 79 cents apiece.) Sedona wanted to be Cinderella with mini-makeovers and tea time and, well, she got exactly what she wanted and more!

The Party Fairy turned all the girls into princesses with a wave of her wand and her catchphrase: "Bippity-bippity-bop!"
After all the girls were transformed into beautiful princesses, it was off to the Royal Tea Party to wish Sedona a formal happy birthday!
It was a very fancy tea party indeed!
After all the parents arrived for to pick the kids up, the girls did a royal "runway" walk in their outfits before a final group photo and dance.
The Party Fairy introduced the birthday girl first!

The girls had a blast! Sedona said afterward, "I heard one of my friends say, 'This is my favorite party." As far as how Sedona felt about it, her recent thing to describe stuff has been "I like it, but I don't love it" -- except in this case about the party, she said it simply: "I loved it."
To show the detail and hard work that went into this party, the preparations to set up at our house started the day before for two hours and then again for three hours before showtime.
Happy Birthday, Sedona! Her actual birthday is the first day of school, which will be very exciting as she'll be starting kindergarten at Hermosa View. We are so proud of her and excited for her!
