Another year older


Both of my daughter's are now in elementary school. I have a 5th grader and a 1st grader. They are aging faster than I can count. Everyone tells you, when you are pregnant with your first child, how fast those years go by. During the first year of that child's life you think, "Yeah right!" I am here to attest that it is true. I am almost the mother of a middle schooler. AAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Anyway, my oldest (top photo) had a Harry Potter party. We had magic tricks (science experiments), played authentic HP games (quidditch), and of course had cake! Chloe read all of the books, so I fashioned a book cake.

My youngest is obsessed with the movie "Tangled." Anytime we ask her what she wants to watch, that's her choice. So for her party we took a trip to Focus on the Family, which has rooms to rent for FREE! The kids played in the children's play area and I didn't have to clean up!! Perfect! Her cake is a replica of Rapunzel's tower in the flowery field.
