So we invited 10 of Lilly's favorite girlfriends over for a Fancy Nancy inspired Tea Party. We ate heart shaped pb&j, grapes, mini pink cupcakes, heart shaped sugar cookies, and cherry 7up accessorized with purple heart shaped ice cubes. Lilly and I glued jewels onto her plate and cup because she was the birthday girl. She loved it!
Everyone took turns hitting the pinata. When it burst, it was like and end of year sale at Macy's... Lily, Lilly, and Halee - Opening presents. (Later Lil told Leslie this was her favorite part of the party.... go figure...
Fancy Nancy books, James Avery jewelry, American Girl paraphernalia, a new book shelf, a porcelain teaset, and we can't forget the male barbie that looks JUST LIKE her dad, and more. Lilly made off like a bandit.
I wish I had taken a picture of the favor baskets we gave everyone. They were heart shaped baskets, adorned with grograin bows, fake jewelry, glitter body mist, a fancy pen, stickers, a pinkalicious or purplicious book, and a picture frame with a pic of them with the birthday girl in it.-- I so overdid it.
Your modern-day 1950's family. There's, Nate, man of the house, priesthood holder, bread-winner, and accomplished entreprenuer/ fisherman/hunter. Jen, the young, housewife/mother of two who loves her job, keeping a clean house, and being able to do what she wants when she wants in between keeping shirts starched and lawns mowed. Lilly is our divine free spirited little girl of 5 1/2 years. She attracts people, compliments, and smiles with her good looks and vibrant personality everywhere we go. She is smart, kind, loving, thoughtful, and talented. She likes golfing with her dad, playing with her sister,dancing, painting, and is excited for kindergarten this year! Megan is 2 1/2 years old. Meg has a spunky personality and tells you like it is. She loves animals, her blankie, her mimi, and dog Lulu and will tell you her best friend is Lilly. We love each other and take on each new day together. Our family has been blessed since the moment it was started and we couldn't be more grateful to our Father in Heaven.
