wearing a crown to lunch

Had a birthday in the family but hadn't had time to get together to celebrate. Finally we just decided to take one hour of our busy lives to celebrate a special occasion. It's hard having a birthday in the summer time. Kids are out of school so you think that maybe an outdoor party is great but if there isn't a pool involved you have hot guests, we crossed that out. We decided to have an indoor party but the time was off, so again we postponed.

What did we end up doing, you may ask?

Woke up to finish wrapping her gift and frosted cupcakes that I made last night. Told my sisters that we should just meet up for lunch. That we were going to go ahead and celebrate on lunch. We chose chick-fil-a . When we got there we set two tables together. Erica brought balloons and tied them to our birthday girls chair. We finally sat down to celebrate Maggie's birthday. Made her day our little princess. We treated it just as special as it was meant to be. Took us almost two hours from eating to opening presents. Did I mention we all had crowns. That it was a tea slash princess party inside a chick-fil-a. Yes we had all kinds of looks but that didn't matter because it was our little girl's party. While opening presents two perfect strangers wished Maggie a happy birthday by giving her a dollar. Not only that but she even passed two police officers that wished our little girl a Happy Birthday. I hope that it was as memorable to her as it was to me. I keep referring to her as ours, not because she is our little child, but because she is our little niece.

I also want to thank the people at the Irving chick-fil-a  for not kicking us out after having us take up part of their busiest time, and by having our three year old have specially made cupcake crumbles on the floor.

Randomness only works when you have the right people involved.
