Royal Princess Day!

Brooklynn loves anything princess. She asked me once if princesses were real. My first thought was no, but then I realized. "Oh yes they are." I told her about the upcoming wedding and we had decided that we would watch it together and celebrate.

I babysat some friends and so they all made some crowns the day before.

One of my favorite things on her wall is a saying that says "Daughters of a Heavenly King" and a picture of Brooklynn and McKenna. We always call her a princess and I have always told her when she grows up and marries in the temple she is just like a princess. Since Brooklynn was 2 she would watch Disney movies and alway call the castles temples. I love that.

Brooklynn dressed up in her Belle costume. She looked so pretty.

She wanted me to dress up too so I put on an old prom dress.

Cam acctually liked it too and enjoyed watching with us.

I loved that she got to see a real princess. I wasn't really into it before the wedding and then I realized that this was a part of history and to let me kids be part of it.

It was hard at first, because I was having one of "those" days. I didn't feel pretty and really didn't want to get dressed up. I just wanted to mope. But I saw how excited Brooklynn was and I had to do it for her. I had a lot of fun, especially spending it with my kids.

We had a muffin tin lunch and of course had to have Fish and chips. We added some fruit and a treat too. Since it was a fairytale wedding they each got a new fairy tale book.

Photobucket
The kids LOVE Fish sticks. Which is unfortunate, because I can't stand the smell or taste.

Photobucket
They always eat so good too.

McKenna was asleep the whole time, but after she woke up we dressed her like a princess too.
