Treatment may have ended for Katie, but the battle is far from over.

Please say a prayer for all the children who continue to fight childhood cancer day after day.
Pray for their strength, resilience and healing.

Royal Princess Ball

Today, we brought Katie to a Royal Princess Ball in Devens, MA. Because this is the one year anniversary of her Leukemia diagnosis, we wanted to do something really fun for her. Although the steroids stifled her smile for most of the ball, she still seemed to have a good time. All of the princesses were there...Cinderella, Snow White, Ariel, Belle, Sleeping Beauty & Jasmine...even Aladdin made an appearance!!!

The princess dons her tiara...

And her royal sneakers...lol

And promptly hits the dance floor!

They had light fare for lunch...tea sandwiches, fresh fruit, lemonade & cupcakes...Katie went straight for the cupcake...a girl after my own heart!! lol

A dance with Daddy....

And Mommy...

And Princess Aurora...

There were great games like London Brides and the Limbo!!!

Mike was friends with the DJ, so he got us "backstage" for a private photo shoot with the princesses :-) The other little girl was the DJ's daughter.

I have to say that this Royal Ball was done really, really well. If your looking for a fun afternoon with your little girl, check out Miss Emma's Ta Parties for more events.
