A Royal Tea Party

A few weeks back while Shea was away working, I secretly planned a tea party for the kids. Nothing too elaborate, but once Loreli caught on to what I was doing she got excited and wanted to help plan our tea party. She picked out the table cloth, napkins and even invited a few guests. Jack didn't care about the set up he just wanted more jam thumbprint cookies.

Later that night when we were talking to Shea on the phone Loreli went on and on about the tea party we had and he requested that we relive this tea party experience. So we did! This time it was a royal tea party so we decorated crowns that we could wear to tea time.

Loreli was the Queen and Shea was the King. 

I love that Loreli is stuffing her face in the background.

Shea taught Loreli the phrase, "Off with his head!" We heard that one a few times during tea.

And the execution...

And then I just had to throw these pictures we took a few weeks back before going to church. Isn't this face just too cute?

And this one...

And check out this belly...
