Princess Festival

Last week we I had the opportunity hang out with my favorite Princesses for a couple of hours. Everyone from Rapunzel to Sleeping Beauty. My friend Liz told me about a company, In Our Own Quiet Way, that runs the wonderful even where all the money raised goes to help the people in Kenya.

Princesses Kallie, Shantel and Abbie!

Riding to the Royal Ball in Cinderella's carriage!

It was a 2 hour adventure where all the girls show their inner beauty and pass 5 tests to become a real Princess. They were greeted by the Blue Fairy (from Pinocchio) and had to save all the Princesses from the evil witch, and get them to the Royal Ball.

The Future Princesses meeting the Blue Fairy.

Their First test was to help Snow White get away from the evil witch and NOT eat the delicious red apple. Here are the girls with Snow White after they saved her!

Test 2: To help the prince get Rapunzel out of the tower. Look close you can see her hair hanging down the tower!

The next test was learning to act and dance like a princess. Rapunzel showed the girls a few ballroom dancing moves they could use at the Royal Ball.

Test 4...to save Sleeping Beauty from her deep sleep and tell the Prince how to wake her up. Some suggestions where to dump a bucket of water on her head...but they all finally came to conclusion she needed a true loves kiss to wake her up!

Sleeping Beauty looks so fresh for sleeping so long! A photo op to say Thank You!


The last and Final test was to rid the land of the evil witch by saying Bippity Boppity Boo! Now they were True Princesses and went to the Royal Ball with all the other Princesses.

Cinderella getting ready...The glass slipper fits! Prince Charming was so grateful we were able to get a photo with them!



Beauty and the Beast were there!

It was so much fun to go and see all the girls working together and for such a great cause. Shantel was a little shy meeting all the Princes and Princesses. Kallie got into the whole process and couldn't wait to help save them all! If you have little girls I would definitely suggest going next year!

My girls loved this post and the music made it extra special :) This festival looks like it could make a girls dream come true.
P.S. Those princes look a little young to be dating, hah!
