princess in training

Doranda's girls are always wanting to spend the night at Aunties house. (aka mine)  So we try to make arrangements once or twice a year to fit it in.  The older they get the harder it is to schedule with school, soccer, and other activities.  Every time they come over they ask to go to the princess castle.  I asked my client (who owns it) if they ever have events that my nieces could come to.  They have a cool Christmas program but the girls were in California then.  However I found out they have a princess camps in the summer.  They are 2 hours a day for a week and different weeks have different Disney princess themes.  Before committing to taking them, I asked their mom if I took them 1/2 the week if she would the other 1/2.  She said although a lot of driving she would be willing to.  So I signed them up and took an extra day off work to take them.  I had them from Sunday night to Wednesday morning.  The girls had know idea they were going.  I really think they are enjoying it.

After class we went to the movies and saw Finding Dory.

We also went to a magician in the park and played on the toys and at the splash park.







  I also took them to get a cupcake.
  They wanted to eat McDonald's.  That's the only time we ate out.  I tried to get them to go to sushi and almost talked them into it (or so I thought) but ended up with Kraft mac and cheese....They wouldn't even go for pizza.  Oh well.  We ate a lot of food from the garden they picked too.
  Lucy wasn't real sure about them staying at our house but didn't do to bad either.  The days went by quickly.  It was fun.  I wonder what we will do next time....
