We're Back...

at least for right now!  LOL :o)


Here's a little recap of the last few months:

We celebrated G's 6th birthday back in May with a
Strawberry Shortcake party. She invited friends from the neighborhood and from school. We also rented a bounce house for all the kids to play in!  I think she had a great time and received some really cool birthday presents. :o)

Right after school let out for summer, G did a week long princess dance camp.  Each day the girls could dress up like different Disney princesses and they did activities that went along with that princess.

"Princess Aurora"

 "Princess Rapunzel"

 Little sister had to be in on the action too.

"Princess Cinderella"

 "Princess Merida"

At the beginning of July, we went back home to Texas for a few weeks which was wonderful!  It was jam packed with a trip to the beach, a trip to the cabin in Caldwell, visiting family and friends, eating yummy food we don"t have in NC and making lots of fun memories.
