Last minute surprises

I was excited to share some special news with my daughters when they got out of school. I took them to a store after school to try and some outfits (more on what this is for later). Anyway, we had major meltdown city over outfits. That's the thing about twins, they both either want the e a t same thing or they are completely opposite and you never know what your gonna get because they are subject to change at any given notice.

On the way home I find out that TOMORROW they are having a literacy day and must dress-up as a storybook character. What??? I have like 2 hours to figure out who they are going to be and what am I going to use for the costumes! Where was this memo!! I'm sure it was sent home but most of the time they come in, tear out papers like a mad women and spur them a Ross the floor and I don't know what's trash and what's not after that!

Ok, I knew at this point I needed to think up something fast because it's 6:00 and so far I have no idea what character to suggest except Cinderella and snow white and you know every little girl just about will probably be Cinderella.

So, after MUCH debate and tons of costume rummaging, I think they have winners. Yay!
Well, the moment of made up minds and happiness Didn't last long. Yep, we entered meltdown city for the 2nd time today(or 3rd or 4th-lol). They aren't liking these costumes anymore and Mom has to figure out another plan that doesn't involve something itchy!

Long story long, and with MY lovely mothers help, we have 2 wonderful storybook characters ready to take on literacy day- Nancy Drew and Pippi Longstocking. Posted a pic of my little cuties in their "role" below!!
Thank you Lord!!! Can't wait to Hear what mysteries Isabelle solved (AMA Nancy drew) and what adventures Scarlett (Aka Pippi) went on. ;)


Hoping my costume tomorrow is SUPERMOM, because I am a gonna need it!

Over and out, g'nite!
