Life is what you make it!

The next Friday that dad has off...The next Friday that dad has off...The next Friday that dad has off! I swear I repeated this phrase to Alexis over and over again for the past 2 weeks. She had been waiting ever so patiently for this BIG day to arrive. This is a day that definitely continues to make my heart smile!

I created an evening full of girlie things...a night catered to a little girls dreams! She had my undivided attention the entire evening, other than when daddy tried to sneak downstairs and join in on the fun! NO BOYS ALLOWED!
Below are pictures that we took to capture these memories. I can't wait for Brynn to get old enough to join in on the fun!

Here is our tent made with a Hannah Montana sheet, of course! And our boas for extra beauty!

 What's a "sleep over" without painting nails?!

 Matching color!

 I was the winner of round one of Candy Land..thank you very much!

 Time for ice cream in our tent...a favorite treat of ours!

Notice that we decorated the tree with our boas!

 Alexis was the winner of round two...way to go!

 A little pin the rabbit on the nose game...this brought lots of laughter for us both!

We made our own Cootie Catchers (fortune tellers)

 Here they are!!

And a night is not complete without a little Junie B. Jones!

Time for bed...goodnight!

 When I put Alexis to bed last night, I swear she fell asleep with a smile on her face. My girls will never have to "earn" mother-daughter days. I will take time to do things that make my heart smile, like spending time with them! This is life and I am making it a {GREAT} one!
