Eva's Birthday

Lily went to her very first birthday party- one of her best friend's Eva Wren!  It was a gorgeous tea party.  We felt even more special since it was all family and us!  Here is the beautiful Eva, sitting on her daddy's lap, and the cake her mom and aunt made. I had no idea my friend Jessica was so talented and baking. 

Lily got all dressed up, including a little petticoat.  She is such a cutie!

And here she is with her mom and dad, who I must say, looked very nice in his tea clothes.

The house we had the party at was 200 years old.  The front yard has the coolest tree I have EVER seen.  Someone said they think it is a hemlock?

Look at the way the branch goes into the ground and back out.  Amazing!

We had a great time, and Lily was a very good guest, even though she only had a 30 minute nap that morning.  She didn't cry and call any extra attention to herself.  She is getting so big!  I got to get her up from her nap now though.  She is thumping her legs onto the mattress, telling me she is awake.  Sounds like an elephant stomping around upstairs or a car door slamming outside.  Seriously, it took me a few days to realize what that sound was!
