anyone seen john's tooth?

this is john 3rd tooth that has "fallen out" with the help of daddy. the tooth fairy left john $1 and a new tooth pillow for his future losses.

with one tooth gone the other is about to fall out. i have a feeling ol' bucky bucktooth will be around for our grand entrance back to las cruces.

needless to say john was excited to have his tooth out.

loverly tea party

a little known fact about adelynn is that she LOVES tea parties. at any given moment you might be in the midst of an impromptu tea party. john is an amazing tea party guest. he makes sure that there always is enough food and peach tea.

this year we finally got around to having a birthday party for adelynn.

the theme...... A Loverly Tea Party

we had 4 of adelynn's closest friends over for a girly yet proper southern Tea Party. here are a few photos of the event.

the table scape for adelynn's birthday party.

real monogrammed cloth napkins with real glass plates and cups.

only the best for this Tea Party. : )

when the guest arrived we "had" to make sure that their nails were properly painted. : )

proper drying technique

then dressed in the finest Tea Party attire.

i had chosen a really pretty blue silk dress for addie with a white shawl. but that wouldn't do at all. everything had to be pink, from head to toe.

once everyone was dressed the Tea Party could start. our menu included nutella sandwiches, cheese sticks and red grapes. the drink was white cranberry - strawberry "tea".

my attempt to make a tea cup cupcake.

adelynn had a blast. it was the calmest, quietest and sweetest party i have ever been to. very different then a certain 6 year old boy's birthday parties.

HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY ADELYNN.

john's first day of school

I know the semester is almost over but I was about to post fall pics and realized I hadn't even posted first day of school pics. I think I posted most of these on FB so it's not like you haven't seen them already. just have to keep things in order. : )
