Every girl needs a castle that is almost as big as she is - it's big enough to hold all the princesses she has, plus a few Polly Pockets. Thanks, Nana and Aunt Laura!
Speaking of Polly Pockets, it's pretty easy to accumulate their clothes and accessories really quickly! Thank goodness the regular Polly Pockets and the Disney princess themed dolls are the same size so they can share all their clothes in their new castle. Thanks for adding to the collection, Aunt Elizabeth, Uncle Brad, Boston and Cameron!
Tessa also received some Shrinky-Dinks. She insisted on coloring them right when we got home and watching them bake and shrink. She wanted to hang them on the wall, so we taped them on a piece of paper and put them above her bed. To the left is her portrait of me (apparently she can tell it's me because she drew earrings, not that you can really tell).
Here is a closeup of the Shrinky-Dinks; they were Tinker Bell themed.
We also had cupcakes and played games and had a good time with our family. Tessa also received a Princess and the Frog playset from Uncle Andrew, Aunt Melisa, Olivia, Colin, and Kate that she absolutely loves. The bonus was that it came in the mail, because really who doesn't love getting a package in the mail?
The downside to the giant pink castle is that we had to get rid of something in the play area of our family room. We decided on the play kitchen. Tessa hasn't played with it regularly in about a year (she got it for her 2nd birthday) so we packed it away and it will be sold at our garage sale in two weeks. Along with every other toy in the house not geared towards ages 4 and up. But not the castle. Or anything pink. Pink stays.
