pink party...

Last month, BJ's stepsister, Lyndsey, was in town for a visit with her two little girls. Grandma Char planned a pink party for all the granddaughters. First, she let the girls "help" decorate for the party with pink balloons and pink crepe paper...

Then, each girl got to decorate her own cupcake with pink frosting and pink sprinkles. In order to convince Brighton to sit in the high chair, Grandma told all the girls that Brighton was the queen. The big girls could not stop giggling at the idea that little tiny Brighton was queen. After eating their tasty cupcakes and drinking their pink lemonade, Grandma had a surprise for each girl...

She let Brighton peek into the basket first. Well, Brighton saw the surprises for the big girls and was really excited about them. But, Grandma had thought that Brighton would be too young to care about fancy shoes and had a cute little princess doll for Brighton instead. When Grandma handed Brighton her doll, without hesistation, she chucked it over her shoulder and poked her little head right back into the basket in search of a pair of shoes. Ha ha! So, here are Addy, Kennady, Brileigh and Macy showing off their fancy shoes...

Then, outside they went to blow bubbles from their pink bubble containers and eat pink ice cream cones. Someone had abandonded their fancy shoes, which Brighton confiscated and wore all about the yard (serious concentration required).

The next time we saw Grandma, she had a pair of fancy shoes just for Brighton! And, of course I had to snap a couple of pictures of Emma. She is such a happy baby!

Thanks for a fun PINK party, Grandma Char!
