Princess Tea Party

Months ago, Addison and I were discussing her 5th birthday party.  Normally we just do a little cake and food at the house with family but all of her friends were starting to have parties, so she was so excited when we came up with the idea of a tea party.  Momma was now on a mission to find a place and host a tea party for our 5 year old and all her little friends.  I found Into My Garden Tea Room in downtown Plano that was just perfect.

So months went back and Addison's excitement grew with each week.  The party week was upon us and she counted down each day.  It was the cutest thing.  She received her requested dress for the princess tea party of Elsa from the Disney movie, Frozen.  She looked stunning and beautiful.  Tears come to my eyes as I look at these pictures.  Time has flown by and she has grown into such a sweet, loving, kind, rule following young girl.  













Addison has been so blessed to have meet such sweet friends from MDO and ballet.
Her face is priceless.  She was grinning ear to ear the entire party.
Each girl came dressed up in their princess costume.  Precious.
Each girl received a princess sandwich, fruit kabob, heart muffin, their own tea pot with tea (pink lemonade) and a tea cup.  The girls spent most of their time feeling grown up and pouring pink tea the entire party.



Look at her little pinky.  She showed us how to properly drink tea.

Jack & Claire

This post is way past due but I finally downloaded pictures off of my camera and found these.  A few months ago we ran out to Haslet to meet up with the girls cousins and they had a blast.  They were able to run wild outside and enjoy the beautiful weather.  They loved every minute of it.  Any time they can be with Jack and Claire they are game.  I pray that they will continue their close relationship as they get older.

Easter Weekend

What a blessing family is.  We went east for Easter and enjoyed the country air and all that family has to offer, which is a lot.  Our little family just loves to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and slow down.  It was great to spend some time with William.  The girls enjoyed every minute with him.

 MeeMaw's piece of pie - she loves these kiddos.
 PawPaw's backyard
Grandaddy's favorite pass time for kids - picking up sticks. 
 Don't you just love the overalls.  It's great because they can get muddy and that's just what overalls are for at the farm.
 I love this man!!!  God picked perfectly.


The girls had their princess rods and were off to catch fish for lunch.  Guess how long this lasted?  About 5 minutes and they were bored.
 No fish, so we resorted to hot dogs.

 Family pictures that Landry was not up to doing at all


I think this sums up the weekend.  Worn out and had a blast doing it.

Sweet & Silly

This girl is always making us laugh and just scratch our head with her words and actions.  We love her to pieces.



Attire to ride the scooter out in the front yard.  Both girls cannot go throughout the day without dressing up.
