Adventures In Being An Auntie

[snogged]

I spent all day Saturday playing with my niece Lauren (she's 5). We built a snowman, we went to see Santa Claus, we ate ice cream, and we played Barbies.

Lauren was a big fan of having her dolls get married. I noticed that, just like my wedding, she always wanted a ring bearer, two flower girls and two bridesmaids for each ceremony.

The first wedding was between Rapunzel (Tangled) and Kristoff (Frozen).

The second wedding was when my niece showed me that she's learning acceptance from her parents.

She wanted Anna (Frozen) to get married, but didn't know who she should marry. Then, she picked up her Elsa doll and said "Punky (my nickname), girls can get married too."

I smiled and said: "You bet."

I didn't point out that sisters shouldn't get married, but I figured we'd cross that bridge when we needed to.

She is. I'm proud of her.

Of course, I just want to know how Rapunzel and Kristoff met and fell in love. ;)

Well, Rapunzel did end up in Arendelle if this (http://www.eonline.com/news/523425/after-reading-this-you-will-never-watch-frozen-tangled-or-the-little-mermaid-the-same-way-again) is to be believed. :P

Some people have waaaaaay too much time on their hands to make all those connections. I did miss that Rapunzel and Eugene had gone to Elsa's coronation, though.

BTW, I'm going to visit my family December 17-22. Although I think I have to do family stuff both weekend days. But I wanted to let you know just in case I do have some free time that weekend and you do too.

I have nothing currently penciled in for that weekend. I'm sure we'll be organizing our house, but other than that it would be fun to see you. :)

Cool. I'll keep you posted as I know my plans better the closer it gets.

Yay for awesome auntie/niece time! I'm glad you had so much fun. :)
