It's time to Party!!!

Finally the cake hassle is over. The hubby and I figured out the whole Princess and the Frog cake problem. I seriously was getting a little worried this evening because we couldn't figure out what to do and the daughter really wanted a Princess and the Frog cake. She didn't want Dora, Tinker Bell, Hannah Montana, or a Princess Party. It had to be Princess and the Frog. It had to be this cake and the oh mommy, I really have to have a Princess and the Frog cake. My 5 year old is stubborn and dramatic like me and the devastation and the end of the world if she didn't have this kind of cake and so you can tell we couldn't disappoint her. Her first birthday was a big deal and her cousins came but since her first birthday her cousins rarely came to her birthday parties so this year we decided to invite her pre-school friends and spend a ridiculous amount of money so she can have a great birthday. So my area of town stores don't make a Princess and the Frog cake. I can't believe finding a simple cake could use up so much energy but we figured it out and in my daughters eyes we are her hero's. We ordered a purple cake with Happy Birthday on it and after running around town searching for a solution we bought a Princess and the Frog musical toy set as the decals for the cake. I can't believe finding Princess and the Frog of anything beside the barbie style doll would be so hard to find but it exhausting. It was hard and I kind of was worried. It's like the stores in my area don't carry this Princess. We didn't expect to spend all this money but we're fools. We're fools to spend so much money on a hour and half party. We're just crazy but she's our little girl and she only turns 5 once. Okay, she's already 5 but to her this is a huge deal and we wanted to give her a special birthday. We think she's worth it!! So Saturday is going to be a crazy day because "us" parents decided to plan a 5th birthday party for our daughter on the same day our son turns 3. Yes, we have lost our minds to schedule two parties on one day. I call it a brain fart but our schedule worked out this way. So in the morning we're hosting a birthday with a bunch of 4 and 5 years old and then coming home with two sugared up kids and then in the evening celebrating my son's 3rd birthday. Our house is going to be crazy with two kids jacked up on sugar. What was I thinking? and I don't think I was thinking but it's our kids. I love my kids so "us" parents do weird and silly stuff like planning two parties on one day. I'm sure my house is going to be one messed up place. I may need a vacation after this weekend. Oh my, crazy!!! 10 years ago if someone asked me if I would do this I would laugh in their faces because it's not normal but then again I do crazy stuff. Take care, Peace!!
