Jolie decided she needed to throw a party. Luckily the Miss America pageant just happened to be this past weekend. So she told a few friends and than on Friday made a little flyer to pass out to all the girls in the sixth grade. There is around 30+ girls. We had heard back from about 14 which was a great turnout...little did we know that 21 would actually show up. We put on the flyer that they could come dressed up if they liked...and yup they pretty much all dressed up. As the girls arrived we had them pick a state and I made a sash for that state. Once all the sashes were made we all gathered in the family room for snacks and the show. I had the volume the loudest it would go and it was still very hard to hear. After a little bit we did our own poise and presentation, than talent part and than crowning of the winners. Of course there were LOTS of snacks..normally when I host parties with my friends there are lots of leftovers...NOT the case when you have 11/12 year old girls. WOW, they can eat...and drink lots and lots of soda!
Brett was amazing and took the 3 middle ones for a fun night. They were supposed to go glo golfing but the place had closed down and we didn't know it. So than they tried to go bowling but it was only for 21 and over so they went to tgifriday's and you would have thought it was the best night of their life. They LOVED it and came home raving about how amazing it was. So funny what makes kids happy. Once all the kids left..there was a monster mess. Brett got right to work cleaning up...I'm so blessed to have such a wonderful husband and father.
