While my family was in town (I know, i'm backtracking again) my mom decided to do a princess party for all her granddaughters. As always, my mom went all out. She had decorations, wands, crowns, jewelry and many other things for the girls.
The purpose of her party was to talk to the girls about their 'Happily Ever After'. She spent countless hours making a book for them that has that very talk from Elder Uchtdorf. They each got their own book along with a framed picture of the temple that says "if this is not your castle, then you are not my prince".
After having a little talk with the girls, she then presented a princess lunch that she had prepared. The girls had place mats with name tags where they were to sit and they were just pampered.
I think for most of them at this age, it was just FUN to have a party with grandma. As they get older and have their book to read, they will understand the significance of what grandma was trying to teach them.
Princess Senna
Princess Maddy
Princess Bella
Princess Addy
Princess Marley
Princess Savannah
Princess Hailey
Grandma and her granddaughters... minus Macey who was sleeping.
While the girls were hanging out with grandma, the dads took the boys to Lowe's Extreme Air Sports to play around.. then to the river where they all got soaked.
They came back after we were done and helped the girls (or Hailey) finish off the amazing fruit platter.
Thanks mom, for putting so much time into a great memory for our daughters.
