Tea Time!

I would call number 23 a success! Of course we wore Sunday best and used excellent manners. Pinkies up girls!Personally, I find the giant elk in the background a nice finishing touch to the elegant occasion. Alesha and her mother made this beautiful masterpiece for us. It was Delicious, but it was very hard to eat. You see, we named her Wanda, and you really shouldn't name your food. You get kind of attached. I have much better manners than Alesha Hatch. Enough said.


Thanks for the tea party Mads! It was great! Another thanks to Kylie, for making sure you mentioned in our prayer it wasn't real tea ;)

Dress Ups/ Number 16

Most People in the world would argue they have the best friends. This is not true.... unless they have my friends.

Exhibit A: Who else plays dress ups at a teenage party? Us. Only us. Yes, we are great!

Exhibit B: "His neck is too 'masculine' for the strings on his crown."

Exhibit C: Haha! This picture just makes me laugh. The feather hats on his shoulder are a nice touch I think!

Exhibit D: I would just like to document this great moment! Yes, this is Jason in a pink unicorn costume. Need I say more?

Exhibit E: I have the best guy friends. They dressed up on their own free will. Actually, they dressed up before the girls. You guys are my favorite! The evidence is all here. My friends are the best. Don't even try to argue. I love you guys!

In addition to this being proof of how great my friends are, this also fulfills the requirements to number 16 on my list. Totally unexpected. I should do unexpected things more often. This is quite possibly one of my most favorite memories of 2011, even though its only been a month :) Thanks for making 2011 so great already!

Ryan's Birthday

Ryan has the first birthday of the year! For number 9 in my list of productive things to do in 2011, I decided to host Ryan's birthday party! We played games and watched "The Emporers New Groove." We also had birthday brownies...because I hate cake. There were candles though! :)Happy 15th Ryan!
