Autumn’s Mermaid Wish Comes True

Updated: Jul 7

How one magical day brought bubbles, treasure, and joy to a brave little girl!


A Surprise Fit for a Mermaid

Autumn’s wish journey began in the most exciting way—at the Kentucky Derby Classic! While attending the event with her family, Autumn received a surprise announcement: her wish to become a mermaid was coming true! The crowd cheered, and her smile said it all. From that moment on, the countdown to her underwater adventure began.


A Day of Pure Magic

Just last week, Autumn's dream was officially granted—and it was nothing short of enchanting. Mermaid Cassie made a surprise appearance, bringing the magic to life for Autumn as she received her very own mermaid tail, thanks to her friends at Mertailor. With sparkles in her eyes and a tail to match, Autumn transformed into a real-life mermaid for a day of unforgettable fun. Together, Autumn and Mermaid Cassie dove for treasure, blew bubbles, and splashed through the water, laughing the whole way. Every moment was filled with joy, imagination, and the kind of magic only a wish can bring.


Sweet Celebration

After their underwater adventure, it was time to celebrate. Autumn and her family enjoyed a beautiful mermaid-themed cake, complete with sea-inspired details. Surrounded by love and laughter, the day was a celebration not just of a wish granted—but of a girl whose bravery and spirit continue to inspire.


The Magic of a Wish

Autumn’s wish reminded everyone just how powerful imagination can be. From the first surprise to the final splash, it was a day full of happiness, wonder, and mermaid dreams come true.
