Celebrity Mom

We had a fun and very random adventure last week. Over spring break one of the fun activities the girls wanted to do with MiMi was go get their nails painted at a salon. While the three of them were lined up getting their nails done a woman approached and asked if these three cutie-patooties were mine. She then went on to explain she is part of a production company that puts out commercials and they were filming a cookie commercial the following week. She asked us to come down the next day to just have the girls do a quick "try-out."

I went home and checked everything out on-line to make sure they were legit...they were. Then, basically out of curiousity, took them down the next day. We had a lot to do and I knew if it were going to take real long we would just head out. It actually only took 15 minutes. Well, guess what? She called us Monday and asked for all 3 to come be a part of the commercial on Friday.

Here are the budding actresses before we left home: Laney and Reese were filmed playing tea party at a kitchen counter. Bud's Best Cookies out of Birmingham really does have some yummy cookies! All are bite-sized so there were no issues in getting the girls to chow down. In fact, our little sweet-tooth, Reese, kept eating and eating and eating...

Ashlyn had to actually act some. Here she is getting her hair done. She even got some make-up put on that cute face.

Below is her practicing with her actress mom. She had to get really excited and grab the cookies out of the grocery bag that just got brought in and start eating.

It really was a cute and fun experience since it was something we would never seek out ourselves. They did great and were adorable. Bud and his son actually flew in for the commercial shoot and kept commenting on how cute & sweet the girls were. They were extremely nice and the cookies are quite delicious. We got to come home with our own little stash. Hopefully, we'll get a copy once it's done that we can share.

When Ashlyn returned to school her teacher asked where she had been. She said Mrs. Wilkins called her movie star the remainder of the day and all of the kids in her class gathered around real close to her asking questions. She said it truly made her feel like she was a movie star!
