How to throw a cat birthday party!
I had already received her kitty cat party goods because I planned her party way in advance! We talked about a kitty theme and stuck with it! Leighton turned 3 back in May and during that time we decided not to have her birthday party because of Covid. She had a drive by parade and the Unicorn snow cone truck came to her house!

Girls joint room makeover!
When we decided we wanted to do foster care we knew we needed to create a space for that precious child! We knew he needed his own space so we decided to move Leighton out of her room and in with Ainsley.

We moved her out and had to clean out a bunch of her belongings and clothes because they weren't all going to fit in Ainsley's room. Ainsley ...
