Too Cool for School!

By

My daugh­ter, Anabelle, start­ed Kinder­garten today!!! You might recall the “I Hope You Dance” par­ty I post­ed a cou­ple of weeks ago, cap­tur­ing my wish­es for her to take chances, have fun and dance through­out the many adven­tures life has to offer. Today’s adven­ture began with wak­ing up from a good night’s sleep, get­ting dressed and eat­ing a break­fast of cham­pi­ons… well, actu­al­ly it was Chee­rios! Though she is not usu­al­ly an “ear­ly to bed” kind of gal, the fun-filled Back to School week­end we just had tired her out! We ded­i­cat­ed the last few days of Sum­mer vaca­tion to prepar­ing and hav­ing fun, includ­ing shop­ping for sup­plies, camp­ing out in our liv­ing room and watch­ing “Bar­bie: A Mer­maid Tale 2”, of course. To build excite­ment for the new addi­tion of school uni­forms, we also had a “RULE THE SCHOOL” pho­to shoot and fash­ion show!
I col­lect­ed items from the var­i­ous shops where we pur­chased her uni­form clothes and acces­sories and put togeth­er “looks” that com­prised the Fall 2012 Kinder­garten Col­lec­tion in our fash­ion House of Petite Cakes! I uti­lized the same chalk­board back­ground from my “Grow­ing up 80’s” par­ty, along with props from Anabelle’s “No Toy Gets Left Behind” cel­e­bra­tion to set up the shoot. With school graph­ics from Maree Tru­elove, I made an invite that I attached to a met­al lunch box. I also pur­chased some rib­bons in her school col­ors and made some hair bows to match her uni­form. We blast­ed music, struck many pos­es and did exact­ly what girls just wan­na do! ♥
Along with the graph­ics from Maree Tru­elove, I uti­lized addi­tion­al designs from Cup­cake Cutiees to cre­ate lit­tle love notes to include in my daugh­ter’s lunches!
And final­ly, instead of show­ing up with some reg­u­lar apples to gift our new Kinder­garten teach­ers, we glit­tered some up and expressed our excite­ment to be start­ing a SPARKLING new school year!

From wit­ness­ing her take her first steps to now watch­ing her walk into her Kinder­garten class for the first time, these are moments I will cher­ish and remem­ber for­ev­er. So, might as well do it with style, with some sparkle and shine, and always ready to dance. ♥

Merci Beaucoup!
