Birthday Party!

It has been a while since I have blogged simply because our old computer took forever to upload pictures and my iPhone was recently dropped in the toilet by accident by a certain 3 year old. Well, instead of playing catch up, I am just going to start up again by posting about my girls' Alice in Wonderland birthday party. Of course, Aunt Marley made the cupcakes and did a superb job (as usual). The movie was playing on a big screen as the guests arrived. We played "Pin the Grin" on the Chesier Cat and a "Painting the Roses Red" game (similar to musical chairs). We had a tea party complete with tea cups, tea sandwiches (P B & J, pimento cheese, and chicken salad), sweet tea, lemonade, fruit and fruit dip, and crackers with Popeye's Passion dip (special thanks to the chefs! Grammy, Aunt Lynn and Crechale). Aunt Marley and I constructed a "Rabbit Hole" made out of cardboard boxes. It didn't transport well, so G-Paw, Uncle Dustin, and Ben reconstructed it (Thanks!). We ate cake, blew out candles, and opened presents. Ella blew out her own candle and had her first taste of cake with icing! Everything looked, tasted, and worked out great!! Chloe is now 3 years old, and Ella is now a 1 year old. I am looking forward to the fun times ahead that we have together. Thanks everyone who made the party such a memorable one!
