Instagram post 2192475503250999755_7295578504 It’s Christmas Party Season!! . This year its all about adding some sparkle. And who doesn’t like sparkles, right? ✨ ✨✨✨. . This reminds us of a sparkle story of when our daughters were young (like 4 and 6) and were having a play date. Well they got a hold of one of those hair sprays with sparkles. The ones you would use for Halloween or crazy hair day for school. And well they decided that Christine’s husbands suits needed some sparkle. Well you can guess what happened next. .sparkly suits 🙈🤦‍♀️🙄. And a large dry cleaning bill!!! . . #ohthememories #sparkle✨ #everyoneneedsalittlesparkle #momsofdaughters #momsofteengirls #addsomesparkle #christmasstyle #over40andfabulous #momblogger #mombloggersofig #yycfashion #fashionover40 #17thavesw #yycstyle #momlife #calgaryblogger
