Winter is like Birthday Spectacular around here. And birthday’s in my world require costumes, well any day can be costume day, but birthday’s even more so.
So when Miss Five turned Six in June, we had a big Sailor Moon party, complete with a couple of Tuxedo Masks. The amazing costumes for the girls were specially made to order by Violet Le Beaux with only a week’s notice and were the highlight of the day. We have an awful lot of Moon Tiara Magic around here!

Miss 6 and Miss almost 3, playing musical statues with “Tuxedo Mask”.
Then after those festivities, if having one creative type in a family isn’t enough, both our dogs have birthday’s too! (This makes FOUR Leo’s in one house!)
The tradition is that each year both puppies get lots of dog treats and new coats as their birthday’s are right in the middle of winter. Even though they are pretty fluffy, having overnight lows of zero degrees is enough to see icicles appear on their noses. Given that I’m letting them sleep inside at the moment, I chose a couple of lighter weight, jersey material coats with a super cute factor.

Both the little jackets are from Shique Pooch, a local online dogwear store. I love that I can just machine wash these as Miss Lola has a habit of following rabbits wherever they go, muddy or not!
Then in just another two weeks, my tiny little Miss 2 turns 3! I’m off sorting out a ‘big bed’ for her and then getting ready for even more parties in August when the Mr and I will also increase our fabulous quotiant by another year.
But one of the big reasons for the birthday post today is to say this..
A BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my little bro today, who is living all the way on other side of the world.

Happy Birthday “Fernando!”
Oh yay, the party! Looks fun. Those dresses look gorgeous on the girls…and the puppies!! They are adorable in their little suits.
oh man, I need to dig out my star sailor costume – jupiter!
The dog coats are so cute. I usually don’t approve of animals in clothing but it’s definitely needed atm.
OMG I love you for throwing a Sailor Moon party, I would have loved LOVED to have a party like that when I was a kid… at 25 it’s not too late though is it?
