Par-tea!

Yesterday I called a dear friend to tell her about how CUTE my goody bags/party favors were for Sunshine's 4th Birthday Party. I told her that I knew she'd be at the party in less than 24 hours and that she'd see them for herself then, but they were so stinkin' cute that I just had to tell her RIGHT THEN! (She was a great sport and played along well...thanks A.T.). And then I remembered...HELLO...I have a blog...I can brag to many people at once...PERFECT! So here's a picture of these cute goody bags folded and stapled to resemble large tea bags - complete with a grosgrain ribbon attached to a nametage where the "Lipton" label would normally be! >

Now enough about me and my tea/goody bags! Sunshine turned 4 on Friday and we celebrated today with a tea party. Lots of little princesses running around and a few cute-but-stinky boy cousins chasing after them! But guess what...Sunshine had such a great time with Mimi and Papa that she went home with them! We're all a little sad and lonely around here without birthday girl's love and laughter! The "problem" with her visiting her grandparents is that she doesn't miss me NEARLY enough! The last time that she visited them, she told me that while she missed me "A lot", she missed daddy "A LOTTER!" Well... I'll miss her "A LOTTEST!"

Of course I can't put a picture of my party bags in here without a picture of the party girl. So she's here too.

And a picture of her sister helping(?) with cake and cupcakes.

And a picture of the cake!
And I have no idea how to post more than one picture in some sort of order...hence the collage!

Thanking God today for Mimi's and Papa's everywhere, and for another beautiful year with my now 4-year old baby! How sweet it is!
