Arbor Lakes Kidstock party

Our local Shoppes of Arbor Lakes had a Kidstock party a couple Saturdays ago. Mira, Amelia, and I went, and the girls had a fun time at the (very few) booths that were there.

Mira and Amelia got to try out instruments from Schmitt Music. Mira chose the trumpet, then later the flute.
Amelia chose the drums:
The girls also did a scratch art craft:
There was also face and hair painting, but the lines were so long and it started raining, that we didn't stay. To help Mira get over the disappointment, I took her to Claire's and let her pick out new earrings. She was so excited to finally change her earrings that she gladly took me up on it!

And last weekend, there was a magician for the kids at the Town Green. We were totally planning to go, but had scheduled an installation for the same time. We were able to just make it to the show and sat down when the magician said, "And for my last trick!" Mira was so disappointed! We sort of hung around after the show was over and the magician came over to us and asked if we liked the show. We explained that we arrived only to see the last trick. He was wonderful and started doing a private trick just for Mira and Amelia. It involved pulling red foam balls out of their ears. They loved it! Disaster averted!
