The Princess Party

 

There's been a scarce number of nice days lately so we took advantage of the first one in awhile by exploring the river. 

Hudson's cars are never far away. 

Lydia is doing amazing in school right now. We had parent teacher conferences and her teacher couldn't say enough good things about her. She's in the top of her class in almost every subject and more importantly, is kind, respectful and a good friend. We couldn't be more proud. 

  Just look at that beautiful chair. Loren's spent the past few Saturdays working all day out in Avon on it. We're hoping it'll be done by the time our babe arrives. 

Last year, because of Covid, the annual Princess Party the Family Place puts on was cancelled. How excited we were this year to see it was on again! The morning of the party was a frenzy of hair and makeup but the girls looked beautiful in the end. 

The facepaint station was a hit this year. Luckily we got in line before it got long. The girls loved it.

Making "wish" chests for their special shells and gems.

  We weren't sure who this was but we took a picture with her anyway. 

After so many fun activities and pictures we were ready to sit down and enjoy a snack. 

  Then it was time for the ball! I think this is the girls' favorite part. Lydia danced with a prince!

  We had such a fun time and can't wait for next year!

 While the girls and I were gone, Loren was working on the chair. This is the headrest that he had to get just right. 

Allie is still loving preschool. They do so many fun things. 

Arm rests are done! It's hard to explain how much work Loren's put into this. I can't begin to count the number of hours he's spent on it. 

Silly girls!

Loren sent me this today. It look like they're tearing down the old buildings by the office. It will be interesting to see what will be built there instead.
