Last Friday, Laci came to me and said that she and Leslie were presenting a Barbie fashion show for the family. We often have “shows”. The kids will write scripts and plan scenery and costumes and even make tickets for us! When they first told me about the show, I thought it was a fashion show using their Barbie dolls, but it wasn’t that exactly. It was really Laci modeling her various princess dresses (which were found at thrift stores, courtesy of Grandma). The first dress she modeled was a Barbie dress, hence my idea that it was a “Barbie” fashion show! Leslie made cards for Lauren and Mitchell to read which described each dress. Like the dummy that I am, I didn’t take pictures of those adorable cards! Leslie wrote things like “Here comes Barbie! Lookin’ fantastic! Yeah!” (with slightly different spelling!). It was precious. They made a runway, and a platform and Leslie made a sign and tickets for us. Terry was away that night, but I got lots of pictures for him, and other loved ones who were unable to be a part of the fun.

Like every night at the Basham household, it was a hoot!

There’s never a dull moment around here. And I’m loving every minute of it. Thanks for reading!
