We celebrated Pipers graduation today. All throughout the day, details were filled in and things were carted to and from to prepare for her party. Naturally, the babies were pretty fussy pants about the whole thing, but we managed them the best we could and still managed to do some things. At least Peanut had a BIG ole nap!!
After lunch, the beautification began. Is it even a camp grad if you’re not doing your makeup off the barbecue??
I did a little makeup for a couple of lovely faces, and threw waves into some hair, but everything was pretty low key. However, time moved quickly, and we were definitely scrambling to get everyone dressed and ready by the end. All three babies ended up in the right clothing at least, tho all loose ends were not tied up. But, it was zero hour and that didn’t matter.
The Dahlsjos threw an absolutely beautiful party. So many people were there who LOVE Piper, ourselves included. I had the rare opportunity to offer up a speech for her, and Brady played guitar and sang a really fitting song.
Bonus point to Carrie and her kids for helping so much with our babies through the program and the meal. And what meal it was! 🤤 That was truly a life saver.
The party wrapped up with Piper getting her diploma, and having some pictures taken. By then, the babies had all pooped. All three of them. So Brady and I took them back to our site to freshen them up. Times were tough with the babies, and I couldn’t be as much help to the Dahlsjos as I would’ve liked to be. But look at this adorable crew!!! 😍
They’re a sight for sore eyes, hey?? I made it back in time to sweep the kitchen but that was about it. Otherwise, all the work was done!
Piper came and hung out in the camper a bit before bed. I took her makeup off and we talked about her gifts. She’s an awesome girl. I’m really excited to see what’s coming for her, and pretty stinking honoured to be part of her circle. It was a lovely way to wrap up the day.
And now, I have earned my sleep 😅🥱 so off I go. Goodnight, friends. I hope you’re enjoying the long weekend as much as we are 💜
