N-I-N-E
McCanless knows my obsession with parties and planning, and apparently I’ve rubbed off on her. My girls have quite strong personalities and I take what they want to do and run with it…as long as they like it. This skating party, however, was completely McCanless’s idea. We got busy over break tie-dying and tying tulle for tutus. This week, she marched herself right into our local bakery and drew a diagram of the two-tiered box cake with a hot pink bow on top and pink and purple and lime green polka dots. She created a menu of hot dogs with chili, chips and grape skewers. I’m so proud of my 9-year-old little party-planner.
Everyone had so much fun! Adults and kids…and no broken bones! (Although, I’m sure a few of the, ahem, older guests feel like they have broken bones today!) It was a magical night for my sweet McCanless. She kept saying her party was the best party ever!

I loved every minute of that magical day! So many wonderful memories of McCanless growing into the beauty she is..just like reminiscing her mom’s growing up years!
Love you, Nonnie
