Shell - e - brate with Tiffany
When my sister Liza told me that Tiffany was wanting a mermaid party I raised my hand and took on the task of designing and making everything with help from my girls and of course grandma Beth.
Tiffy Two shoes as we call he does not say much and is usually quiet around me. Slowly over the few weeks before hand I was showing her all the treat that had been made. To see her face light up was priceless. I had a mermaid board on Pinterest that helped a lot ,

This was Tiffany's first "real " party before starting school. We wanted a homemade party with all the delights but did not want it to look like it was staged and bought. The weather was mermaid perfect and we had a great time as you will see in the photos.

Instead of a party table and chairs we cut our 25 clam shells with a long picnic blanket. Then we could use the shells later for party games. |

Ahhhh I love this, I suggested to Tiffany's father to dress up. Robert came as a deep sea diver and loved every second. I reckon that is such a fun idea. |
