Princess Camp

So Isabella went to "Princess Camp" this week at our local recreation center. I know, what the heck is Princess Camp, right? Well, you're about to find out.

On Monday, we had a little Princess Belle. That day they did puzzles, made tiaras, played "Pass the Tiara" (like hot potato), painted pictures, and read princess stories. Here's Isabella before she went and with her treasures when she got home.


Bryce wasn't quite sure what to do with himself, so this is how he spent the first morning.


Tuesday we had a Cinderella (or as she insisted - Cinderella Isabella). They made a different Tiara, made edible wands out of pretzel rods, made wands to bring home, did new pictures, played a game and read stories.


Wednesday brought around Princess Tiana. She made a Princess necklace (which she wants to wear all the time now), they made Princess cone hats, had Princess fruit snacks, played with fairy dust, and played "Who has the magic slipper?"


Thursday, she was Jasmine (thanks to Aunt Margie and cousin Katlyn). They made cupcakes from scratch and decorated and ate them, they made princess door hangers, made sashes for their tea party, and had a Princess Dance Party.


Friday was the final day of Princess Camp and Isabella got to wear the dress she'd been begging to wear since it arrived on Monday - Snow White. Today they made magic mirrors and got ready for their tea party. Parents were invited to the tea party as well. Ken was off work today so he was able to go too.

We saved this one for Friday because we knew they were having their tea party today and it is washable, unlike the other ones. Aunt Linda was very nice and made this beautiful Snow White dress for Isabella. It came in the mail on Monday. Linda sent it to us un-hemmed, so I spent the afternoon hemming it and fixing a few other things. Here's a picture before it was hemmed



Ready for the last day of camp. She didn't wear the cape to camp because we figured it would get in the way and it was a little big around the neck.



Dancing for their parents. They all twirled a little too much and kept falling down.



Waiting in line to play pin the tiara on the picture.



Enjoying her cookie during the Tea Party.


Saying goodbye to Miss Ellen.



Saying goodbye to Miss Amber.



Showing off her goodies from today.


And I had to include this one cause it was just funny.


All in all, I think she had a blast. But it was definitely a long busy week. And unfortunately it ended as the hottest week this year with a heat index of 120 degrees today.

Bathtime

Bryce was a little excited about bath time last night and jumped in fully clothed...socks and all.
