Teya's 6th Birthday celebrations!

Teya is 6 years old!!

On her actual birthday we celebrated as a family by taking her to Chuck E Cheese

The kids had a blast as always. It's so fun to see them go crazy in there.

 We bought a little cake and sang happy birthday

Cutie BFF sisters

Teya was super duper excited about her new stamping kit we got her. This girl is the queen of crafts.

On Saturday after play practice she had her friend party.
With the craziness of our schedule lately I didn't have as much time to plan or work on it as I would've liked, but I still think it came out pretty good.

The theme was Rainbows and Unicorns, with a little fashion thrown in because that's what the girly girl wanted.

We started with makeovers by my cute neighbor who is a beautician.

 She put feather extensions in their hair and cute makeup on their eyes.

 Once the girls were dolled up they were feelin' sassy and wanted to do a photo shoot.

 Rockin' the sunglasses from their goodie bags. 

We also dipped "unicorn horns" aka ice cream cones, in white chocolate and decorated them with frosting and sprinkles.

 Then we opened presents while we waited for the pizza to come. Teya got lots of great gifts including a stuffed unicorn which she was immediately smitten with.

Then it was time for cake

 My friend Darby made this scrumptious rainbow unicorn cake with the most delish buttercream frosting.

 The best part though were the rainbow layers inside. The girls were just giddy when we cut it open.

 We finished off with a rainbow pinata (because it's not a Rigg b-day party without a pinata!) 

Brinley was excited about the candy. (btw, if you're wondering why I filled it with such gross candy, I had to buy stuff that wouldn't tempt me, otherwise I would've eaten it all before the party ; )

It was a great weekend of celebrating our little Teya. Happy Birthday to my sweet girl! We are so blessed to have her in our family : )

From Camping Trails to the Catwalk

On our last day at Camp Joseph the girls were scheduled to attend their little friend's Barbie Fashion Birthday party. The party was at 3:30pm. We were 2 hours away in Vermont. We figured if we left at 1pm we'd be okay... until we got sidetracked by 24 flavors of soft serve and crispy golden onion rings. That deliciousness put us about 45 minutes behind schedule.

We put the pedal to the metal and made it into Nashua at 3:45. The girls were filthy and still in their camping clothes but we had no time to spare. I quickly rushed them in the house, stripped off their stinky campfire clothes, threw dresses over them, undid Teya's braids, put bows in Brin's hair and hosed them down with perfume.

We arrived at the party at 4pm, only 30 minutes late and just in time for the girls to hit the catwalk.

You never would've known they had just come from a campout.

 A lot of Teya's preschool friends were at the party, including her teacher Mrs. H! She was so excited to see her again!

 Mia's mommy went all out and every detail was perfect. The kids got to do a little fashion show on the runway and it was pretty darn cute.

 Eating dinner with an explosion of pink. Pink food baskets, pink trays, pink table cloth, pink cups, pink dinnerware, pink napkins, pink girly heaven. : )

Teya modeling the feather boa, necklace and sunglasses from her goody basket. So stylish. 

 After dinner, a pinata and b-day cupcakes it was time to go. The girls had a great time and I was proud of myself for getting them there (looking cute no less) on such a crazy timeline. My mommy powers must be getting stronger ; )
