We didn't have fancy decorations, but we had a TON of fun! After hot dogs, curly fries, and cupcakes, we settled in for the movie. It wasn't long before popcorn was in high demand. As you can see, the best way to keep a room full of 2nd graders (and 6th and 9th graders, in case you didn't notice them in the background) entertained is with popcorn, and Troy from High School Musical. Don't they look mesmerized???
Here, have a closer look...they're completely tuned in!
After the curtain closed on what turned out to be a consensus of "the best movie EVER," a few friends left and the others stayed for a sleepover. Yes, I am insane. I learned a lot of things about that little bunch of roses. For example, after serving cupcakes and hearing excessive giggling coming from those little angels at the table, I learned that one them has an extreme reaction to sugar. And when I say "extreme," I mean hyper. Extremely hyper. She was "practicing her cartwheels" all night...all across my living room. I also learned that another one is a hugger. But not just a "hug-you-once-and-leave-you-alone" hugger. I mean a full-contact, as-many-times-as-I-think-about-it-in-a-half-hour-span hugger. If nothing else, I felt loved.
But most importantly, I learned this is the most amazing, diverse, beautiful bunch of young ladies, and I couldn't wish for better friends for my precious Mini Me.
OH, I also learned that 2nd graders know "hot." As in, "Troy is hot." Oh boy...

is that high school musical napkins i see? you are a cool mom. when the movie started, everything got quiet and we wondered if there was a collective silence heard round the world. yeah, the "hot" word surfaced over here this summer, only it was to describe jeff :) i love innocence!
You are such a good mom! You are making quality time and warm memories with your Mini Me that you will both always cherish and that will keep you close. I'm so proud of my girls - such awesome moms!!! Love you!
