It has been a crazy few weeks. We have spent most of the time feeling yucky. Literally I have had a child home sick each day for the past week and a half! UGH. But we did get better and finally this week calmed down and we seem to be back to "normal". The upside was that the weekend was beautiful. Warm and sunny and just what we needed. We spent most of the days outside enjoying the beautiful weather. The last of the nice days we spent at the playground along with the 50 other kids and their parents that had the same idea. It was crowded but the kids had a lot of fun. No pics though as it was a last minute decision to go once I picked them up from school. I did get to work at our school's book fair which does not sound very exciting, but when you do not have much adult interaction it was fun! The other fun thing we did was the fashion show. It was extremely fun for my 13yr old. She enjoyed dressing up and parading around. My 2 and 5 yr olds were so happy to see all the girls dressed up, but they were especially happy about the desserts. It was a "tea" party with dessert only and drinks. My son cried and complained that he did NOT want to go to a TEA PARTY and he did not think that I should make him and it was so unfair and STUPID! Once he got their and found his friend whose mom made him go too he was fine. They enjoyed stuffing their face with all kinds of yummy desserts and chasing each other around after it ended. I on the other hand got to eat 2 bites of dessert and then began the fun game of trying to take pictures while keeping my 2 little ones under control. Not a fun time. I would have to get up and go over to the "runway" area to take a picture which meant the 2 and 5 yr olds would rush over with me and then once they figured out that mommy only had one hand to capture them with since I was trying to take pictures with the other hand they were like a pair of unleashed animals. Needless to say we left as soon as it was over as I had been wiped out trying to control them and keep them in their seats. They were cute though and I understood their excitement. It was like a huge princess party to them. They gowns were beautiful and the big girls looked all grown up. The little ones oohed and ahhed over all the pretty gowns and proclaimed that they wanted to do that when they get big. Here are the pic's of the event.
Do you see the exitement in my 5yr olds face. Do you also see the desserts???
She was soooo excited!!
Here is my star of the show. She looks so grown up in her gown. Beautiful.
