Princess Party

Today was one of those dreary, nothing planned, just hang around the house kind of Saturdays.  I was looking forward to it.  The girls spent most of the morning in their PJs.  We played.  I did some laundry. The girls took a fun morning play-bath.  (The girls LOVE to play in the bath, so when they get a morning or afternoon bath without the time constraints of bed time, it's a fun treat!!) And then our day got a whole lot more exciting.  Uma called to tell us about a fund-raiser at a local hair salon.  So the girls finished their bath, put on their fancy dresses, and we headed over for...

a princess party!!!

Snow White took Staley from station to station at the party, spending the whole time with her.

Staley told us that walking around with Snow White was her favorite thing!!

Staley played a game, made a wand, and then got her fingernails painted.

After that, she got a fancy hair-do...complete with sparkles and a new tiara.

To top it off, she then got a cookie...before lunch!!

What a perfect treat for my little princess!

And we also supported St. Jude.  Winner, winner!!

And, of course, Adelie was ever-ready to go along for the ride.  She played a game, won a glow bracelet, and had a cookie treat too.  She didn't get her hair or nails done, but I don't think she minded.  And since I didn't take any pictures of Adelie at the princess party (poor, neglected second child), I'll share not one, but TWO pictures from our fun outing to the Farm Park yesterday to make up for it.

Taking a break from playing to 'cheese' for the camera

She can brighten up even the gloomiest of days!!
