Mr rogers wisdom

"Being a parent is a complex thing. It invokes trying to feel what our children are feeling and trying to know just how much to help them with what they cannot yet do for themselves. It involves understanding the difference between sympathy and empathy.
Doing just enough for somebody so that person can grow and do all that he or she is capable of doing - thats a large order."

Princess party take 2

K wanted so badly to have a sleep over... So we did! Here are the highlights :)

We all had Cinnamon rolls - I think I made over 30 and the plates were licked clean.


Kaylee before the party begins - all the girls got princess hats, little pink boas, and a few other princess esque essentials :)

Tea party set and ready to go!

Brendon didn't want a princess hat - so a disco ball wig was a comparable substitute.

Kaylee and Maddie painting the welcome banner :)  They are such wonderful artists - Kaylee did the lettering herself!

Our own little punk rocker in the 'photo booth' courtesy of Kaylee's bedspread

The ice cream cake we forgot to eat until midnight... :)

What is a princess party without makeup??? 

These are the picture frames the girls made!  We printed a group picture for each of them and they got to take home their favorite 'photo booth' memory.

Love this little face <3  Whipped cream and all :)

The dahling little Cady bug :)

Midnight snacking with BFFs - does life get better? methinks no.

The group picture of all of our princesses in the 'photo booth' :)

More cake noshing - always a good thing :)


Thanks for all the parents that let me borrow their lovely little ones - we had a BLAST!!!
Hopefully we will have another very soon :)
