When Life Give You Lemons...

MAKE LEMONADE!
Cade and Cora are participating in a "LEMONADE WAR" Read-A-Thon with SCPS Lower School.  We're raising money for Alex's Lemonade Childhood Cancer Foundation.  We're taking bids for how many books we can read.  If you bid 50 cents a book, and they read 20 books, you owe them $10.00.  They're reading their hearts out, and they've only got one more week.  If you would like to support them in their efforts, you can donate online at http://www.alexslemonade.org/mypage/91862
Thanks!

Georgia Day

We realized this year that we may live in the only state that has a "day" named after it.  A lot of fun it is though.

Three Cheers for a Minnie Mouse Tea Party

In an effort to not "short change" the third child, we threw Clara a Minnie Mouse tea party! She wanted a Minnie party, and I've always wanted a tea party, so we compromised! It was such fun! These were the most precious girls EVER!

Game area!  Games included Pin the Bow on Minnie, Musical Minnies, and Hide and Bow Seek!

One of the little girl "tea tables."

The Tea Room

Minnie Galore!

We opted for ears instead of hats!

We found and painted two paint your own pottery tea sets from the Wal-Mart clearance rack.  We let our guests take their tea cup and saucer as party favors!

Party Girl!

Tea Anyone?

All Minnied up from head to shoes!

THREE!  We even made Minnie's for the front doors!

Big sis was a great helper!

We took the red and white thing very seriously!

Minnie cake and Minnie cake balls!  They were supposed to be cake pops, but that was a disaster! You can't win 'em all!

This girl loves to blow out candles!

Seriously!!!! HOW CUTE ARE THEY???

one, two, THREE!!!

I can't believe that our "baby" is three!  She was the sweetest birthday girl ever!  She sang to herself before eating her birthday pancakes this morning.  She was THRILLED to take cupcakes to her sitter's house to share with friends, we went for yogurt after school, and then had birthday spaghetti and "meaten" balls for dinner!  Her favorite! Now she's tired and full and very happy to be THREE!  Stay tuned for our Minnie Mouse tea party pics after Saturday!
