Happy Birthday Hope!

Hope Elisabeth had her 11th birthday at the end of February, it's hard to believe how fast time is going. 

Wasn't she just this chubby little kid??

 

 

Now she is growing up into a beautiful young lady and a wonderful helper around the house.

 

 

Happy Birthday Hope!!

Angelica's Bridal Shower

This past weekend my mom and a few of my sisters attended Angelica's bridal shower, unfortunately I wasn't able to go because I had to work, but mom got some pictures she wanted me to share.  Angelica is getting married to Tommy in a few months so Tommy's mom and sister's threw a beautiful bridal shower for her.

:: favors ::

 

 mints wrapped in burlap

 

 Decorations over the bubble tea table...

 

 

:: cheese fondue ::

there was also a chocolate fondue

 

Lemon covers on the lemon slices so the seeds don't fall in your drink

 

Angelica is from Canada so in order for her to get to know everyone down here the shower was a little different than usual.  When you arrived you gave your gift personally to Angelica so she could put a face with the name :) I thought it was a nice way for her to get to know everyone.



Warning to all PA drivers and pedestrians!!

Yours truly recently passed her Driver's test and is now a licensed driver!

 

 

Daddy took me to the DMV a few days before my test so I could practice parallel parking in our van.  After many attempts and helpful tips from Dad, I started to think I could maybe do this!! :P  On Tuesday I was really blessed to have a super nice instructor who put me right at ease and (most importantly!) passed me on my test!!  It's a lot handier now that I can drive myself to work instead of mom or dad having to take me every day!
