Tea Party!

Last week we had 5 straight days of rain. And hard rain that! The girls and I enjoyed one day when we had no where to go and could just enjoying being cozy at home. Nana gave Evie a cupcake themed Christmas gift and so we decided (in our new aprons, of course) to make cupcakes and have a tea party!
This was Evie's response when I suggested this idea:
Here we are, getting started...

She took her job of putting papers in the cupcake pan very seriously. I love how she is standing on her toes to do it. ;)
 
Setting up the tea party while we wait for the cupcakes to bake and then cool (we of course used a real tea set for us for this very exciting occasion. ;) Her dolls got all her plastic cups :))
Here they come!

A very happy girl. :)

Since this was only 10:45 in the morning, we also had some veggies to try to balance out the sugar rush. For some reason though the carrots and peppers weren't quite as popular as the cupcake... :)

You may have noticed that the cupcakes had fairies dancing on top. We're very in to fairies these days and wands and wings and Abby Caddaby and dancing. :) This morning it snowed fairly hard for a half an hour or so. To my surprise, Evelyn was *very* excited about this and kept saying "It's Evie's birthday! It's Evie's birthday!!" I'm not sure, but it seemed to be trying to say that this snow was as exciting as having a birthday - lol! She was dying to go out in the snow, but she was in her pajamas still and in her fairy wings. She didn't want to change out of either. I told her she did have to put on a coat (but could wear the wings on top), but I decided to let her go sans boots since she was dying to go out without them, I knew she'd only be out for a few minutes and I knew she would think that it was quite special. ;) Notice how Fairy Abby got to go out as well.
Gracie and I stayed cozy and warm inside and watched from the window. :)
