Cayea's First Slumber Party . . .And More

Caylea's Best Friend at School is Layla.  For Layla's Birthday she had a slumber party. 

I was torn about letting Caylea go because of her food allergies.  Layla is in the same class as Caylea.  I spoke with her teacher and she told me she felt like Layla's Mom would understand.  (also I am home room Mom and I knew she had sent safe treat bags for Caylea and another little boy in the class with food allergies) I went ahead and called her.  I am so glad I did.  Not only because she was so great with Caylea and  double checked everything to keep her safe.  Also because she has offered to help me with the class party.  She has been so helpful in the planning.  We spoke several times this week and I even met her at Target one day to pick out some things for the party. 

My kids have only stayed the night on even very few occasions with family and or a very close friend that might as well be family.  So this was a Leap for me. . .kinda I feel like I have been leaping since August and it actually really feels pretty good :)

Caylea and Layla


Not to offend anyone hopefully I won't but I guess Monster High dolls are super popular with kids Caylea's age this was the second party we went to that we bought them for gifts.  I called Mom's first to make sure both times.  I also had to explain to my girls that their Dad and I agree they will not have one.  I had honestly never even heard of them until the first party that that is what the little girl wanted. 


Awe sleeping little "Panda Babies"


Three pretty girls


The cake Layla's Mom Marianna made isn't it cute!


Fun idea of a sleep over pillow case that the girls decorated that Layla will always have.


Caylea wanted to have Layla over every night this week. Her Mom and I were on the same page as far as school night play dates. I told Caylea if she did well at school she could have Layla over on Friday. So she came over last night it was fun. The girls played outside and then in the girls room. They played the wii and then we made bracelets


Then a sweet friend of Carolina's Brooke and her Mom Kari stopped by to bring the kids some yummy snow man soup!  Cutest idea EVER!  We are so going to do this!


Hershey's kisses, hot chocolate, marshmallows and a candy cane :)

I should of gotten a picture of Brooke and Carolina . . .


She even ran to the car and grabbed an extra one for Layla since we had company ~ wasn't that sweet? 


So since I am on a roll I will go ahead and add the rest of last weekend on here. . .It goes last Friday Night. . .This Friday Night. . .Last Saturday Night/Sunday HA! HA! My brain makes no since. . .just trust me on this one!

So last Saturday night Carolina had her first sleep over with friends.  It was a busy time for Kari (Brooke's Mom) because her husband was coming back from deployment on Monday. . .well she found out Saturday Morning he was coming back Sunday!  I told her she should post pone it.  One of the little girls Aubrey was sick anyways.  She said no Brooke would be heart broken.  She pulled it off!  The girls had an amazing time!

Brooke, Carolina and Emma making pop corn.  Kari tells me that Carolina was amazed she thought popcorn only came from microwave bags.  I know we really should get an air popper!



Pop Corn and movie with friends!


Carolina and Brooke's dog


When I picked up Carolina her hair was so pretty.  She had her nails painted.  I should of taken a picture it was so cute each nail was a different color.  Kari is so brave she gave them real polish and a paper towel and let them sit in her living room floor!  BRAVE I SAY!


After church we went to lunch with some church friends but my friend Holly Jo called and said Kathryn was really wanting to play.  So we stopped and picked her up on the way home.  The girls played all afternoon until time to head back to church. 


What a super fun filled weekend!
