Rebecca and Graceann....it's Rebecca's Hannah Montana lookA few weeks ago the Tyra Banks Show had a sale--selling off clothes, jewelry, and fixtures from the show. As you know Tyra is ending her talk show. I happened to get invited to the sale and found quite a few gems. Besides beautiful jewelry--which i know is "hot" cause the girls want to wear it--i also bought wigs. There were purple hair wigs, witch wigs, Dolly Parton wigs, old lady wigs, and Hanna Montana wigs (who knows what Tyra used all those wigs for)...but anyway it wasn't a bad deal at a dollar each. I figured I would save them for Halloween when the girls were trying to figure out who to be. But once they saw the wigs....there was no waiting til October 31st....the girls wanted to be their favorite pop star right there--right now. So I let them play with the wigs....the playing went on for hours. They love putting on performances and pretending to be someone else. It was an incredible investment....Moms--if you need a break...buy your kids some wigs--and they'll love it. Of course it'll be quite hard to find a deal like I found at the Tyra Sale...but some Halloween stores may have things on clearance since it's an off month for dressing up. Nonetheless....it was wonderful to see the girls enjoy themselves...and just as wonderful to have some time to myself without screaming or fighting.
On another note...if you can't find wigs...cake mixes always work too. Caroline who loves to bake wanted to bake a cake..."just because". It was a red velvet cake and it was delicious. She used the huge cupcake mold my sister got my for my birthday...sometimes "just because" are the best reasons to celebrate!
Caroline's red velvet cupcake!
Caroline and her creation...yummy...was it ever delicious!!!On a final note today.....today is my sister Maria's birthday! She's beautiful, crafty, creative, and very smart....wishing her lots of love and joy on her special day....HAPPY, HAPPY DAY MARIA!!! Love, Christina xoxoxoxo
