Mother-Daughter Party

Last night was the activity girls mother-daughter party. The theme was flip flops. The leaders brought each girl a pair of flip flops and told them to decorate them for the fashion show. Of course, Emily wanted to decorate that very night! But being the procrastinating person I am, we waited until the day of...Poor Emily...all she wants is a mother with definate PLANS. unfortunatley, she ended up with me.

The party was a lot of fun, the moms painted their daughters toes to get ready for the fashion show. Then each girl got to strut her stuff and show her creative flip flops! We named Emily's "party in the USA"

Each girl got an award, Emily's was most patriotic!
After the show we had yummy treats; Emily especially loved the little umbrellas in the drinks! She brought them home to put in the "childhood memory box" she keeps under her bed. (Sometimes we argue over the stuff she gets to keep and the stuff I get to put in scrapbooks-I let her keep the umbrellas!)

We had a great time, it was nice just to spend time with just Emily. Sometimes being the oldest has a lot of responsibilty. I am glad we were able to have fun and not worry about other stuff.

Thanks to Erin for taking the pics and emailing them so quickly!
