Shark Escape at the Shark Reef

Okay not really, but when I told the girls we were heading down to the Shark Reef, Brooklyn immediately wanted to wear the shark costume. Yes, this is her halloween costume this year. Special thanks goes out to my friend Kim who bought it for her baby. Since it doesn't fit him yet, she let me borrow it. Of course, I or should I say Mack, accidentally bought her a nifty little $30 app for her Droid that she will probably never use. So, it seems we are renting the costume for $30. Makes me feel a little better...not really.
Anyway, everybody in Mandalay Bay kept staring at the little shark walking around. She was so adorable.

Summer Olympics 2020

Keep an eye out for a Swensen girl in the future Olympic games. I've got three girls. One of them is bound to make it, right?

P is for Party!

So I totally stole the idea to have a Spa Party for Mackenzie's sixth birthday. It was wild, crazy and fun. 14 little girls getting pedis and manis and makeup was almost too much for me to handle. I am so glad for my friends who stayed to help. The girls had a blast and looked simply fabulous! The best part of the night: when Mackenzie came down stairs after the party and said, "Mom, thank you for the best party." Totally worth the countless hours planning it all.
