Sweet Six!


So, Acacia turned six two months ago. I have been a little behind in posting but I wanted to celebrate her, even if it is a little late.
Acacia is my planner. She desires to know all things in advance. When she wakes up in the morning she asks me what I've put in her lunch and then proceeds to question what our plans are for the evening. With this character trait well established, Acacia planned her birthday party last August.
One early morning in Aug. of 2009 my friend Katelyn Urban came to get the girls ready for school and drop them off for me as I had an all day work meeting. When Acacia saw Mrs. Urban's magic fingers when it came to her hair she enlisted her services for her "hair style" party planned for January 2010. Mrs. Urban was happy to comply and so began the planning of Acacia's 6 year old salon party. We enjoyed having a number of girls come over and Mrs. Urban was there with all the hair supplies, her sister, Courtney James helped as the make-up artist and Auntie Christine was the nail lady. Each girl got to have a turn at the foot spa, having her hair and make-up done and choosing her favorite color for her nails. While they waited their turn they played princess bingo. We had a wonderful time! And I am very thankful for Mrs. Urban, Miss James and Auntie Christine for their help as could never have done all of the salon stations on my own. Here are some pictures to remember our fun spa day.

Acacia's invitations were lipstick tubes. I made the cake to match the invitations.All the pretty princesses - Kennedy Lycklama, Jenna Tyson, Acacia, Nicole Hartung, Isabel, Noelle Olsby, Kate Brown. Acacia's little friend Lindsey had to leave early but she joined Acacia for a princess picture before leaving.
