We celebrated Willa's 3rd Birthday with a super-girly tea party. Camden Parsons, Sofia Janc, and Reyn Linder attended. It was a drizzly day but the guests stayed warm and dry in the playhouse, for the most part. They wore frilly dresses and homemade hats, and sipped tea from Willa's finest china. PB&J sandwiches and grapes served as the main course, and a chocolate-frosted cake with sprinkles and a giant cookie "3" was the eye-popping dessert. Everyone was appropriately demure through lunch, until a handsome Mr. Brooklyn Parsons popped in. Before long, carnations were flying and giggles had turned to full-on laughter. The party moved outside for some swinging and tricycling in the rain. Everyone got pink-cheeked, wet-headed, and dirty, which wasn't part of my original plan, but made for the perfect ending. It was the best of both worlds!
On Wednesday, Willa and I made an impromptu little trip to Austin for lunch and a playdate with Jenifer and Reyn. Sondra and Chloe met up with us for a little while, too. It was so much fun and a great escape from the routine. I don't know why we don't do this more often.
