Backyard Tea Party

 Papa & Nick came over to get some daylilies from our front flower beds to put in Nick's flower beds. Alisa wanted to "help."

 Papa's so good to include her and make her feel useful.

 He made up a fun game where Alisa stood on the shovel and he would pick it up and move it a few feet and put it down. He even got her to count to 10 while doing it. She was LOVING it!

 We had an impromptu garden "tea" (ginger ale) party in the backyard. I had it set up for Alisa & Autumn when Frank decided to join in too. Look at the pure joy on Alisa's face.

 One of the rules of a fancy garden tea party is that you have to sip your tea (ginger ale) w/ your pinky finger out. Daddy made sure to follow the rules too. LOL!

 Autumn is so gorgeous and grown-up!

 Beautiful blue eyes & luscious long eyelashes!

 So happy (including the messy face)

 This is the REAL us.

And now we're done! LOL!
