ONE?, bunny buns, party planning, and American Girl

First of all, is our little Thomas REALLY turning ONE in 4 DAYS??!!! Holy moly!! He is just getting funnier, cuter, smarter, and bigger everyday.


Emma was helping me with our family home evening lesson and found these" Bunny Buns"and couldn't wait to make them. We finally got around to making them this week. Kind of time consuming but they turned out yummy and Emma LOVED them. We found the recipe in our current issue of the "Friend" magazine.

they were finally ready to eat for a bed time snack, that was a big treat!

I've been working little bits here and there on Thomas' birthday party celebration. Many polka dots and primary colors can you tell? :)

This morning when I was getting ready, Emma brought a big box from under her bed that I thought she wouldn't bother on getting into since I've had it under there for like two years. It had my American girl Samantha. I was hesitant to let her play with it since it's VERY old but then heck why not. We changed Samantha into her spring party dress. A I found her playing tea party in her bedroom with Samantha and a couple other buddies. She was talking to them, so cute. I love seeing her imagination run wild. :)Emma hasn't ever had a doll that's a little older, just babies.
I think she really likes her. I found her dancing and playing with her in her bed when she was supposed to be napping. :) hahhahaha

i have samantha as well. My mom gave me the choice between a birthday party and an american girl doll for my 12th birthday. I chose samantha. I haven't let Faith play with her yet. I guess it's getting close to that time. :) I hadn't thought about her only having babies, vs. an older doll. hmm. I just might let her play *carefully* with samantha this weekend ! (this is becky (Myers) kelly, btw)
