Day 261- Fairy Wings

The girls had a birthday party today, and the invitation specified "Fairy Attire." In my mind, that means come in costume.  So in the midst of my horrific cold to the costume store we went.  I hate the costume store. It's creepy and weird, and not at all the type of costuming I am into.  Having to explain to the girls why there was a merry-go-round of life-sized bleeding zombie babies was not the highlight of my day.

When we arrived at the party, I was surprised to discover that the hostess was providing fairy accessories for the girls to adorn themselves with. I felt stupid until 6 other parents showed up with their girls also in fairy attire.  Sigh. A trip to costume shop could have been avoided...
