Kids Camp (Princess Party)

A couple of weeks ago, a couple of young women in our Ward put on what they called a Kids Camp. I think a more appropriate word for it would have been a Princess Party. The girls got to dress up in their prettiest princess clothes and go to a house with a bunch of other little girls and do princess related things. They played games like kiss the prince(instead of pin the tail on the donkey) and find the lost slipper. They got their nails painted, decorated tiaras, made necklaces, decorated castle-shaped sugar cookies, and had a tea party. Both Alyssa and Ashely were so excited to go and when I picked them up they sounded like they had a lot of fun.
The girls had a dentist appointment the day before we went to Lagoon. It was Ashley's first and she did so well. She even let them clean her teeth and do x-rays. Alyssa let them do x-rays and got up on the chair to let them clean her teeth, but then jumped right off as soon as the girl turned on the polisher. I don't understand why she is so scared of the dentist. Unfortunately the x-rays showed that she had more cavities. So we had to go back to the dentist and have her put to sleep in order to fill the cavities. Now we have upped the brushing and flossing routine another step(meaning morning and night with no exceptions, with a prescribed fluoride toothpaste, electric toothbrushes, and daily fluoride pills) to see if we can have a more successful dentist visit 6 months from now.
On a happier note, we are enjoying our last week of summer as Alyssa will start school a week from today. She is so excited to go to Kindergarten and make new friends.
