Princess Kate's Wedding


My cousin Kate got married in New Hope, Pennsylvania.  It was the most beautiful wedding I've ever been to!  Mommy told me that we were going to see a princess, attend her royal ball, and even stay over night in her castle.  So, I had to be on my best princess behavior.




There sure are a lot of rules when you are going to see a princess...


Like no leaning on rocks. 


No running over bridges. 

Walk carefully down slippery stairs.


Sit still and quiet.


Don't throw rocks into the pond.


Don't hang off fence posts.


Keep your shoes clean...oops!


Keep your dress down.


And don't kiss the pumpkins.
(however, this one seemed to be cute enough for me to get away with!)


Sometimes I feel like Uncle Jim is the only one that understands me!

After I got some practice with all of these princess behaviors,
it was finally time for the ceremony to begin and where I could see, "The Princess"!



These became my dancing buddies later at the ball!


Here she is...isn't she beautiful!





Papa kept me entertained at the dinner table


All of the speeches were lovely


At this point, I was completely exhausted and was going to turn into a pumpkin if Mommy didn't take me back to our room in the castle.  What a wonderful night!

The next day was a post-wedding brunch. 
Before we left we took one last stroll through the castle grounds...



I made friends with this guy!




And said goodbye to all of my pumpkin friends



And before we left, I finally was brave enough to go up to this BIG guy!

Thank you Kate and Matt for such a beautiful wedding weekend!
Congratulations!

Best Friends

You know...best friends are really hard to find...


 They don't mind if things get a little messy sometimes!


Especially when they get to help you clean it all up!  


They are there to listen about all of life's big problems.


And most importantly, best friends can always make you laugh!

Thanks Whaley for being my best friend (and a great dinner date)!

Grandma's Visit (Final Edition)

We also went to the Cape May Zoo while Grandma was here. 
I love animals and she loves zoos, so we took Mommy and Papa with us for the day.













But the thing that Grandma loves more than anything else, is the beach...just like me! 
We had such a great time on this beautiful day at the Jersey Shore! 









Grandma sure knows how to have a great time! 
Thank you Grandma for coming to visit, please come back soon!
"Bye, Ya"ll"!!

Grandma's Visit (Part2)


When Grandma comes to visit, we always have THE BEST of times!



We eat lots of yummy food...
(Zeppoles at the Point Pleasant Boardwalk)


She reads me lots of stories!


And brings me LOTS of prizes!




We talk about everything...


And share lots of laughs too!

Grandpop couldn't join Grandma for her visit.  So he sent all the girls these beautiful flowers to let us know how much he wished he could be here.  The yellow roses were for Grandma, the red ones were for Mommy, and the prettiest pink (I called it purple because purple is my favorite) was just for me!








Thank you Grandpop for making all us girls feel special!
