Tea party!

This afternoon we went to the the Teddy Bear Tea party. We had a great time last year and it was even better this year because we had friends that joined us!

Anna, Lina and Julie waited in line to get their face painted.
Anna did a great job sitting very still.

And here is the finished product!

Then we headed inside for lots of fun! Anna loved the gingerbread cookie and then they got to decorate a cookie. Anna put on all the frosting out of her bag (and would have put on more!) and then enjoyed eating some of the yummy candy. She did manage to get some on her cookie too!
There is our group, minus our amazing photographer, April!

Julie, Anna and Lina waiting in line for their turn to ring the bells during a song.

And here is Lina and Anna ringing bells during one of the songs.
And a great shot of Anna. That is my baby girl!
And she was willing to sit with Santa this year but was not willing to tell him what she wanted for Christmas. It was exciting to see her so willing to go close to him! We are making progress!
And, much like last year, she really liked the Snow Queen!
It was great to spend some time with Anna without the boys along! :-) I have a feeling she will sleep well tonight after the busy day!
