Happy Birthday to me: Tiara Tea at the Mayflower

Well, it seemed like a good idea--and Graham and Julia had fun, and we were all together, Terence, the children, and yours truly...
The Mayflower hosts a Tiara Tea the 3rd Saturday of each month, and in June, that fell on June 18, my birthday...so, as a gift to myself, I planned for all of us to go.
It was nice to all be together--but the Tiara Tea itself is a bit over rated...Graham and Julia loved the little sandwiches and the tea--Graham loved the three-teared tea trays and tea making gear...

Julia got a tiara, and Graham got a crown...here are some pics. Preparing for the tea

Princess Julia

Prince Graham

"Hello? I can't talk right now, my mom's listening."

"I didn't do anything! Really!"

The Prince and the Princess

Watch me ride my tractor!

Isn't it cool?

We love daddy

What's on your ear, Graham?

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to Terence, AKA The doctor, AKA Daddy. He likes the last word the best!
Today, he's resting and we'll all celebrate later with dinner...but in the meantime, here are some photos of his babies...oops. Children, now that they are 3! Dr. Graham

June 18--it's my birthday...and, as a gift to myself (Julia handed over her balloon of the 'three princesses' as my gift), I am posting some pictures of my lovelies...Happy Birthday, indeed, to me!

Glen Echo Puppet Theatre: Snow White

Great 'live puppet' production of Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs...meaning humans play the main parts--Snow White, the Witch, the Prince--and puppets 'play' the rest...
Here are some photos, post-play.. "Do I have to be his friend, mommy?" Graham isn't too certain about the dwarf puppet.

"Uh...that's okay, we can have coffee another day. See ya!" Graham sees his escape and takes it.

Graham, charming Snow White with a story, perhaps...
