Pajama Tea Party

Last Friday, Jonathan and the boys went to Movie Night at the chapel. The girls and Stephen were still not feeling well enough to go, so we stayed home. After the girls had gotten baths, we had a Pajama Tea Party. I put a fancy lace tablecloth over the burgandy one, and got out some of the nice china while they took a bath. They were so excited!

Grace’s comment as she excitedly got ready for her bath is such an example of her view of life. “We’re going to have a Pajama Tea Party! And we will Laugh!”

And laugh we did!


Our gourmet fare for this feast was chocolate chips, marshmallows, leftover chocolate bunny, and blueberry tea. Classy ladies!

The Potato Patch

The boys and I set out our potato patch last Friday, using a method I just learned about this year. Basically, we set the the cut seed potatoes in rows on the ground and covered them with hay. As they grow, we will add more hay to keep them mostly covered. We’re excited to see how they turn out – kudos to Jonathan for getting us the goods we needed to “plant.”
