This past Sunday, Felicity and I attended our first Princess Tea Party with Wishes and Wands at The Matthews House of Cary. It was everything we hoped it would be and more. Felicity got to meet all her favorite princesses…all awhile doing some neat activities with her best friend, Madeline! I tagged along with my camera and took a gazillion pictures.
