I found my camera! So here is our big weekend update!

So Miss Kira had her very first sleepover! We planned it for weeks, and had lots of exciting things planned! We had a blast, and the party was a hit.



So I was a little excited to have a sleepover for my darling daughter, and maybe I went a little overboard....but hey, she is only 5 once right? And besides, I *like* going a little overboard for parties...anyone who knows me knows that! And everything went smooth as a baby's bottom thanks to Aunt Kim and Aunt Brie! They really helped keep it fun and easy going.

So first I decorated pillowcases for the girls, they each got to keep it and we put them on the pillows for the party. (Lena didn't get to stay, but she got to take one home!)



I also decorated the soda up a little...but really, it wasn't *that* big of a deal. a couple of glue dots, some silk flowers, a button, and voila! And the girls LOVED it. They were super excited, and wanted to pose!







We also had a hair and makeup session (except Cassie, she let us do her hair,but she doesn't "do makeup and nails" she was quick to inform us!

Here is Miss Kira all made up!



Here is Kira with her friends, Emylea, Cassie and Lena, posing after getting pretty!




Lena didn't want to wear her pajama's, she informed Kira "This is my favorite party outfit, and I never get to wear it, so I think I will just stay dressed". ;)



For the grand finale we watched the original Annie! It was a hit, and I think I enjoyed watching it again as much as the girls! Kira loved it. Here they are all ready for bed, watching the movie. Cassie and Em didn't quite make it,but Kira kept her eyes open until it ended at 10pm! What a trooper.






Saturday a.m. we got up and had waffles with chocolate chips and whipped cream, and then the girls all made "diva" sunglasses with jewels all over them. I couldn't find my camera, so I have no pics of that. :( Sorry.

We had no fighting, and Kira must not be my daughter, because she was wonderful the next day in spite of lack of sleep! We plan on doing this again...though I'm not sure how soon!

Thanks for reading this saga!

WOW! What fun! And again, Miss Kira proves she is Aunt Kim's kid! Kimi was nearly always good after a late night! Heidi on the other hand.....not so good! But I'm glad you all had such a grand time!

Nope. Evan is all mine. He was cranky and mean after spending the night with Collin, even after a nap! That's my boy!

Seriously, dude... you have WAY TOO MUCH time on your hands...

WHERE did HEIDI go? I mean, no mud, no water fights... fru fru girly stuff? Hmmm.... I'm betting your kids have never gotten stuck in the mud at the beach, have they?

And you always called ME the "girly girl" of the bunch...

Thanks for making me feel like a complete SLACKER... once again. I guess it's good to know that my kids will not have to pay for therapy... they will just know that mom being a slacker is the reason for all evil in their lives!!

Sounds like you had fun, but, dude... ease up on the making everyone look bad!! (I'm pouting now!)(By the way... when are you throwing ME a party?)

Love you!!!
