HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX!!!!!!!

Yesterday was Alex's birthday party. She had the fabulous idea of going to "Colour Me Mine" to paint pottery and have tea. Here is a photo story of our outing:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, INDEED! Look at all the paints we could choose from!!! Selecting your colours is similar to playing a game of bingo.

Next time (when we return as pro's) we know to select a variety of colours and share them with everyone at our table! This will save both time AND paint!!!

Some inspiration before it's our turn. LOVE THAT TEAPOT! The artist may very well become a BFF in the future.....

So many smiles! The only two missing are......IAN AND PHILLIP!!!!! Ian actually became a good sport about the whole thing and painted a dish. Phillip remained adamant that a party photographer was necessary.

The Huffho's take arts and crafts SERIOUSLY. Look at the birthday girl's concentration! WOWZERS! Her almost-final product says "TEA HEE HEE" along the base of the mug. CLEVER, right?!

Those who caught a glimpse of Ian's creation might have mistaken this birthday party for an art therapy session. Do you SEE what's on that dish?! Just sayin'.....

My pride and joy of the afternoon - a DADDY MUG! There he is - happy as ever, enjoying the sunshine (who is also full of smiles). You may also notice that he is wearing that proposed "twin" shirt that I blogged about a few weeks ago.

These words decorate the other side of my mug. "How is your tea my dear?" is a key phrase in any daddy-daughter tea party of ours. We get to pick up our pottery pieces in 7-10 days after they have been glazed and fired. And then......every time I have tea, it will be with him!!!

Oh, HEY PHIL!!!! Turns out he WAS part of this glorious day!!!

Check out her "wish" position!!! She is SO ready to make the best 27th birthday wish EVER!

By the birthday girl's request, Disney Princesses were also at the party! "Belle" is her current fave and Emily and I were able to find her on napkins! YAHOO!

WE LOVE BIRTHDAY PARTIES!!!!
