Some More Summer Fun

T-2 takes on the Rogue with King Daddy.

T-2 LOVED her horseback riding lessons.

Fun with friends in Jacksonville.  Yes, friends, that's Prince P.

Cupcake Corner Part 3 (Portland)

A couple of amazing friends and I visited Portland for a girls trip of shopping and Les Miserables (which was wonderful by the way).  It turned into a cupcake frenzy though as my friends were fully indulgent and supportive of T-1's  and my obsession.  (The were totally on board with the sacrifice of scientific research too.  I have very intelligent friends)

Our first stop was Saint Cupcake Galore in downtown Portland.  We all agreed this was the best place.  Queen Krista loved the Red Velvet, Queen Natalie was all about the chocolate and I loved the coconut.  When we go back, this will be the one where I take the princesses.  The variety is best and the place is adorable.  Best Cake too.

Next we hit Cupcake Jones in downtown Portland.  This place didn't have anywhere to sit, but the unusual flavors made it definately worth the trip.  Peanut Butter and Jelly, Rootbear Float, etc.  Queen Krista tried the red velvet here too.  Not bad, but not as good as the Saint.

Our last stop was a traveling cupcake truck we had to locate on Twitter.  It was at a tiny little farmers market and only had a few flavors.  This one was a recommendation from a friend.  There was Almond Joy, Rasperry Lemon and Dulce de Leche.  I'll have to get the other queens to comment on the Dulce -carmel is not my fave, but the other two were not bad.  Maybe a little dry, but to be fair, we did eat them much later since we were stuffed from the others!  I'm not sure it was worth the hunt to find this truck.  Maybe if you live in Portland and it is in your neighborhood.....

T-3 can see!

Adorable Princess T-3 in her new glasses.  She's worried people will make fun of her.  I think she looks smashing.

Royal Tennis Tournament

T-1 came in 2nd in Doubles, and 3rd in Singles.  T-2 came in 3rd in Doubles.  Overall a successful and fun first tournament - especially since as she was walking up to the courts from the car, T-1 tripped and scraped up her knees something fierce.  Poor thing.

Princesses Monkeying Around

The Princesses and some friends went to Urban Monkey - a bouncing air park of craziness with trampolines and squish pits.  Very fun.  No, princesses don't sweat.  They sparkle.

Musical Theatre Camp

T-1 and two of her amigas from theatre camp.  She had a blast for two weeks and did a show at the end called, "I need a Vacation."
