A Pinkalicious Party

Today Emily went to Sarah Grace's 4th birthday party. The theme was Pinkalicious and was it ever cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tracy is the hostess with the mostess! She went all out. Emily had a great time. They got their nails painted, had monogrammed shirts and tutus, made a necklace and a fairy wand. It was all so organized!

I had told Sarah Kate the party was for the big girls. That did not fly too well with her when we got there. I had planned to drop Emily off, run an errand or two and then come get her. I gave into Sarah Kate's fit and we stayed. Bless her heart, she jumped right in there for the story and everything else they did. She actually acted really good.




Do you think SK was enjoying her cupcake??????
Sarah Grace and Tracy.

I love that party! I don't have children, but I adore Fancy Nancy and have bought all the books for my future daughters.

Was saddened to read your line "I gave into her fit"....how many mistakes come out of that? That was a bad example of parenting on every level....continue this and there will be lots more problems. You don't want to read this but on some level you must know it iz the truth. Be the parent, stand up to SK and let her know that "fits don't get rewarded".

Wow, that is quite the party! I know that my sweet niece, Emma, would LOVE a party like that. I may have to keep this in my file of ideas )

Laurie, I have followed your blog for sometime and just had to show our 2 year old this blog post. She will be 3 in December and cannot stop telling everyone that they can come to her Pinkalicious Party. It's her favorite book and we will be "borrowing" this idea on the prairie in North Dakota. Love the pictures!

Something Good to Eat

Ever since Steve and I started dating, when we would go to Mississippi, his aunt would make the BEST ROAST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! Steve's Dad's side of the family gets together at his Granny's house for lunch every Sunday after church. The food is always sooo good!!!!!!!!!!!! I have always taken a liking to his Aunt Judy's roast. It really is the best roast I have ever had. When we were there on Labor Day weekend, my sister in law asked Aunt Judy for the recipe. Aunt Judy began naming all the ingredients. She said Ranch Dressing mix, and I bugged my eyes out and nearly chocked. I HATE RANCH DRESSING. I don't even like to be in the room with it. I had to focus on the word MIX....not the mayo and butter milk and sour cream that you add to it. Just typing those words makes me shudder. The recipe sounded awful as she rattled off the ingredients, but I promise, you have got to make this if you like a good roast. Trust me on this. Here it is: Get a tender chuck...

Complicated

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't remember life being so complicated when I was in middle school. Everything is so competitive now.  Maybe it was back then and I just didn't realize it. Sarah Kate started playing city league softball a couple of weeks ago.   We've been encouraged to get her private batting lessons. When I was in third grade I started playing softball and I just did it for fun!  No stress at all, as far as I can remember!  I just played.  I wasn't very good, but I liked it! Ha! Emily started band this year!  Before school started, I got a letter from the school district strongly encouraging "your band student to take instrument lessons."  WHAT?  I bought into it and got Emily private clarinet lessons (which she really enjoys)! But, what happened to learning as you go?  I never thought about taking private trumpet lessons when I started band. It seems like most parents are striving for their child to be THE BEST....

Life in Pictures!

Emily is enjoying her first year in band.  I am very impressed with her playing skill! Sarah Kate was recently awarded the empathy award at her school.  She is very deserving of this! Here we are before the Cotillion Holly Ball.
