it's delightful...it's delicious...it's dawesome

These invitations were sent to three little darling girls. The plan was to have a birthday tea in Millie’s honor. But last night the birthday girl came down with a temperature of 100.6, so I called all the mommies to let them know the party was off.

Millie was sad, but not heart broken (probably because we’d killed ourselves only two weeks earlier giving her a wop-dinger of a birthday! I am glad that counted for something.)

We told her if she was feeling better that we’d take her to the movies instead.

DEAL!

Well, she woke up without a smidge of temperature. So we tried to find a baby sitter, and couldn’t at such late notice. So I suggested that Jan and Millie have a daddy daughter date.

PERFECT!

Millie got herself ready.

When going on a date, is it possible to “over accessorize”? Not in Millie’s universe.

Clara was convinced that she was on the right track, fashion speaking.

Just look at her face! Complete and total adoration. “WORK IT, girl!”

In Millie’s purple polka-dot purse I placed a dollar bill – which will buy her about 1/3 of a bag of M&Ms at the cinema – but I know her date pretty well, and he’ll foot the rest. He is a true gentleman.

Off they go!

Have fun, you two cuties!

(For their viewing pleasure, you may be wondering? They went to see “UP!” -& I can’t wait to hear what they think of it!)

Just as I finished this post there was a knock on the door.

Sisckel and Ebert had returned and gave it “TWO THUMBS UP!”

Dang, I love those two!

    So cute. Lila LOVES Daddy daughter dates (though Millie gets a little more snazzed up than Lila does!) Johnny wanted to take her to see UP today but it didn’t quite work out. Glad your two approved of it though!!

    You know you have a fashion conscious daughter when she not only puts on several accessories before leaving the house, but when she manages to still have them all on by the time she gets home. Good job holding onto that hand bag, Millie!

    And I must say, she couldn’t have chosen a better date than Jan Dawson. That girl’s got style AND taste!
