slumber party essentials

Lil Petunia is having a slumber party at a friend's house tonight.  I told her that I would pack her overnight bag while she was in school today and drop it off at her friend's house.  She woke me up this morning at 7am to ask where her bag was because she wanted to put something in it.  I told her to just put whatever it was that she wanted to take on her cheetah rug and that I would pack it with her clothes.  She usually wants to bring one of her American Girl dolls and maybe a stuffed animal.  Well, this afternoon when I made it up to her room I had quite a giggle at all that was nicely laid out for me to pack into her duffle bag along with the requisite clothing!  Slumber party essentials for a 7 year old!  I hope it all fits!!

  1. 4 Barbies--2 girls and 2 boys (Hmmm.....)
  2. "Just Between Friends" journal (for secret stuff I'm not allowed to read)
  3. "Girls Rule" Build-a-Bear bunny with roller skates
  4. pink slippers with rhinestones
  5. pink espadrilles 
  6. Nintendo DS
  7. bathing suit
  8. satin sleep mask (someone gave her this and yes, she will wear it to sleep--hee hee)
  9. pink camisole (???)
  10. 2 pairs of satin gloves (long white gloves & short pink gloves)
  11. 2 terrycloth wristbands

lol, one of my friends had a sleep mask when we were kids, too. And a sleeping cap. (I thought the sleeping cap was weird, very larua ingalls), but I think she just thought they were fun to wear. I hope the party is as fun as it sounds.

I wish my packables were that festive! My short-term packing usually includes a black or brown suit, a pair of boring pajamas, and a toothbrush. Only the bare essentials for work travel...and hardly ever anything fun. :( Darn being an adult!!!!
