Sweet & Sassy

This year we celebrated at Sweet & Sassy. This is the girliest of all "girl" stores. A little girl's dream! Anna was talking about it for weeks before her birthday. She was so excited about sending out invitations and getting dolled up.
So, I was looking forward to watching her have a great time. When we got there the young ladies who worked there took the girls behind the curtain to pick out their dresses. Jessica came out first - looking so cute and full of smiles. Then came Anna. What a transformation - no smile. In fact, a pout. I have no idea what happened. One minute things were going good then next - this ->

Nicole getting her hair done.
Ari's turn - hair and nails all at once!
Jessica getting her hair done with her make up already applied. Beautiful!
The finished product! Her hair looked so cool. I wish I could do this for her :)
Lots and lots of glitter today. Here is is all over her hands!

Little Miss Nicole - she's a regular at getting glammed up!
Next, they took the girls back behind the curtain again and this time they all came out on the stage to sing and dance...except Anna....

Hey, at least the girls had a good time!
We moved into the cake room to have some pizza, special cupcakes, and open presents. Anna's smile came back :)
-I think she was just overwhelmed by everything. It was a lot to take in when we got there. Many things happening at once and lots of people around and music, lights, etc... She was better in the smaller room after her belly was filled :)

Seven!


I know that I am very late at posting these. But, finally here they are - Pictures from my little photo shoot with my SEVEN year old little girl!!! When I look at these pictures I have a hard time believing she is SEVEN! She looks so much older but seems so much younger in my mind. I think I have her frozen forever as the little baby I used to rock in my arms not so long ago...
