  • It’s Friday the 13th – Let’s Get Spooky!

    If you haven’t noticed yet, I love a theme. The girls used to let me plan elaborate parties for them (ok, really they were just too little to protest), but now that they’re older, they want to have full control over their birthdays. So, I take any chance I can get to turn a regular…

  • Ogres Are Like Onions – Ogres Have Layers

    The girls decided we needed to have theme days, even after the world went back to normal. We were busy a good part of the summer with Moana, but we managed to get a couple in before we headed back to school. Because we’ve been enjoying our Universal Studios passes, the girls decided they wanted…

  • 7 am the Usual Morning Wake-Up

  • How Far Will We Go?

  • I Just Can’t Wait To Be King!

    The girls were all in our community theatre’s production of The Lion King, so when it came time to choose our next theme day, that was their choice. Regina has loved The Lion King since she was little and was even Simba for Halloween one year. Movie watching was of course on the docket, but…

  • It Does Not Do Well to Dwell on Dreams and Forget to Live

    To keep us sane as the days in quarantine dragged by, I decided to implement theme days. I chose movies the girls liked and planned activities around them. The girls loved the days so much that we did a few more this summer before school started, so this will be the start of a series…
