March

This little Girl LOVES herself a good book!
We had the chance this year to go to the Fairy Tea Party at the Provo Library. Lily insisted on being a Mermaid fairy and Ella was Tinkerbell, of course!

So excited waiting to go!



Ella was cracking me up with these faces
The girls loved the dancing fairy girls who performed a little show while we were eating our tea snacks of chocolate dipped strawberries, cheese, grapes, crackers, and even little cotton candy bites!
Ella with the Fairy King, after the girls all modeled their outfits in the fairy parade. (Which on a funny note, we almost missed. It's like the highlight for the girls, as they call each table up one at a time to walk along the walkway in front of the fairy king and bow to the fairy court. Well, we kept waiting to hear our table called and then they announced that they were moving onto the next part of the program. So like a crazy mom, I raised my hand and said, "excuse Me our table wasn't called." They very kindly started up the music again, and let our girls go up and do their walk. Now whether or not they called our name and we just didn't hear it because we were too busy chatting, or they just honestly missed our name, I'll never know, but I do know that I kind of felt like an idiot making the whole she-bang wait and yet at the same time couldn't imagine not letting my girls have the whole experience of this tea party. I guess there are no length we wont go to as moms sometimes..)

Our table of girls Ella, Kylee, Emma, and Lily
Posing with some of the ballet dancers
Then they had a really cute exhibit of fairy houses that people had built and donated.

I loved looking inside to see all the little tiny details, like a candelabra on the table
And little flower petal pillows on the living room couch

This one even had a little troll living inside
This was one of my favorites made from an old tree stump, and one of the storytellers Dallin created it







One day Lil made a toy store in her room, all the toys separated into categories
She had her doll section, Barbie section
Horses, bunnies, lambs
Mermaids, fairies, dogs, and cats
Even Cowboys had their own section
One weekend, Jordan came down from Weber to hang with his big sis and He and Chad went night skiing at Sundance

They had a blast!
One day Ella wanted to make cupcakes with the baking set she got for christmas from grandma Harmon. Let's just say the cupcakes tasted weird, but the batter was tasty and the process was super fun
She loves her CHOCOLATE!
Neighbor girl Sydnee decided to "do" the girls hair a bit crazy, and they had so much fun.
Lily and Ella got really creative once some of their toys started getting packed. They used packing material here to make veils for their wedding outfits. Love their imagination!



LOVE these girlies
These little Library crafts were so fun for the girls to watch grow and grow.

The last week before we moved, all the girls' furniture and decor was all packed and ready to go in the garage and they looked so small in these big empty rooms. I think they actually enjoyed having all the empty space to play in.
This really helped Ella, who was still in her crib, get ready for the toddler bed she's in now.
This smart girl loves noticing and creating letters everywhere


Ready to go to the ballet Peter Pan that her dance studio Center Stage put on. She was a flower in Neverland

Backstage fun coloring with friends
