The Big Sleepover began with Hayden packing her bags and heading down to Sarah's house Friday after lunch and Jasmine coming to our house with a suitcase full of gear. All four girls spent weeks planning this BIG event, brainstorming what they were going to do, deciding what to pack, making and revising lists, etc. Everyone was very excited. Rian and Jasmine spent all afternoon playing and crossing off everything on their list- dress up, hair-do's, tea party, school, art, mom and big sister, outside play, you name it. It was a fun-filled afternoon. After dinner and a movie, the girls read books and settled in for the night. There was a lot of giggling going on until well after 10 pm! They did a great job getting along and even included Jessie in on some of their activities. Everyone slept thru the night and then in the morning Mike played restaurant with the girls, and they were the "short" order cooks!
After breakfast, the girls got ready and took their babies in their strollers for a walk around and around the cul-de-sac at the end of our street. After playing all morning, both families went to Chipotle for lunch to celebrate a successful sleepover! Jasmine told us that she wanted to live with us forever and her new name is now Jasmine Kensora Thomas!
Hayden and her BFF Sarah had a fantastic time over at the Kensoras house and spent much of the time doing blind make-overs, baking cookies, building and sleeping in the most awesome Fort ever, and watching a movie and staying up WAY too late!!! A splendid time was had by all.
