Note to self: This is the way to do birthdays.
Since I'd dropped the ball on Lily's birthday, we had a day in early Aug that she could invite friends for a girls day. She got to pick all that we did. This really was one of my most favorite days of the summer. I could focus on ONE thing: having fun with the girls. It filled my tank. They know how to have a good time. There was so much laughter & joy!
Everyone is loaded in, we're ready to go!
We had an agenda:
1. Splash Pad
The girls spent a lot of time just sitting and being close to each other on this turtle. They would take turns sitting in the front and touching the water spout. Then a few minutes & they'd rotate. Cute.
They played hard on the playground.
Lily & Natalie were thrilled to do the monkey bars over and over.
2. Chick-Fil-A
3. Nail Polish
4. You guessed it, Sweet Frog!!
It was sweet to see how they stepped out of their natural bents to love and care for each other.
Happy belated Birthday to our capable, determined, sweet, thoughtful, strong-willed, strong-bodied Lily Bug! We love you so much and are so proud of you, so happy to have a front seat in seeing you grow and become....
This is so fun! I need to remember this for future girl birthdays at my house.
