A mum-of-10 has hosted an incredible Snow White-themed party to celebrate her 88th birthday.
Maria Helena’s adult sons all dressed up in costume to play the part of the seven dwarves from the classic fairytale.
The OAP is also the proud mum of three daughters, who helped organise the special birthday bash.

The party also included an Evil Queen and a strapping Prince Charming, as reported by What’s the Jam.
A video shows Maria dressed as Snow White as she is encouraged to bite into the ‘poisoned apple’ by the Evil Queen.
She then sleeps deeply on a bed in the garden as a hunky young Prince Charming plants a smacker on her forehead.
The seven dwarves’ sons then strut across the grass while holding pickaxes and shovels.
Maria’s daughter, Fernanda Cristina Ribeiro said the idea came from watching a video of a similar party on social media.

She added that her mum’s grandchildren were responsible for getting the ball rolling.
But Maria sewed the costumes for all of the characters.
Fernanda said: “She was super excited.

“She cut out all the pieces of material and sewed it all together.
“We rented the Snow White costume as there was a lot more work involved.
“She was very emotional when she looked at herself in the mirror for the first time.
“She didn’t expect everyone to take part so when we were all together, she was very happy.
“Even some of my siblings who are more closed off took part.
“She didn’t sleep on the day of the party.”
Social media users loved the special event, with many taking to the comment section to share their thoughts.
One local commented: “That rocked!”
Another said: “So cool, I loved it!”
Ana wrote: “How beautiful.”
Isabel remarked: “Stunning.”
Katia joked: “We’re only missing five more kids for us to be able to do this party too!”
The celebration took place at Esmeraldas near Belo Horizonte in Brazil last month.
Fernanda revealed that Maria is already planning a Little Red Riding Hood-themed party for her 89th birthday party.
