Tea Party

March 22, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Happy Tuesday!

I thought I would share something kind of fun with you today. My second cousin is a year younger than me (my moms siblings are over 10 years older than her) and he is getting married! So my first cousin, his mom, helped host a Bridal tea party at her house (same house we go to at Christmastime) for the bride. It was so cute and fun, I just had to share with yall! She went all out and everything looked great!

 

there was a tray on each table

Good times were had by all. I don’t know what possessed me to wear high heels two hours after running a hard/hot 5k, but I was cursing myself for it at the shower!

Oh, so I guess you are wanting to know who won the giveaway, right?

It’s Angie from Kansas Runner! Angie, Please e-mail me at runningwithsass At gmail DOT com, and I will get you in touch with Stacy at Punkeelove headbands so you can pick out your prize!

      yes! real tea cups, and in it there was a packet of tea that said “the perfect pair Danielle and Josh May 7 2011” or something like that, and a little baggie of personalized M&M’s. also they had some cookies made that looked like teapots, but I forgot to post the pic!

We take her on these trips and cruises hoping she’ll soak in the adventure, the beauty, and maybe even the food from places different from where we live… but to her, nothing beats a corn dog and mac & cheese. 🧀 

And honestly, that’s the best reminder for us, that joy doesn’t have to be fancy, it just has to be yours. 🛳✨

YES I was dancing, eating mac and cheese from the YES I was dancing, eating mac and cheese from the kids menu, and singing “Let it Go” with a butter knife while wearing Mickey ears on our Disney cruise. 🚢 

When I was 12, I was worried a lot… worried about failing, scared of what people would think of me, and of not fitting in or being “cool”. 
I turned 40 this year and have been spending time trying to figure out exactly who I really am with all expectations stripped away. I don’t love the term “finding yourself”, but here I feel like it fits. ✨

Maybe finding yourself means going back to being 12.… and being myself without being scared. Heather at 12 would never believe this version of me… but I think she’d be proud. 💛✨

Emma Kate turned 11 last month during our sailing and we did so many birthday things! She got a ton of “happy birthday’s” from crew and guests to make it extra special. ✨

👉🏻For a link to the birthday ears she wore (they have lots of colors and variations!) comment “EARS” and I will send it to you!

IYKYK. I finally figured it out…the night before IYKYK. I finally figured it out…the night before we got off the ship. 😆

This is 11. ✨🎉 Not sure how this happened, b This is 11. ✨🎉

Not sure how this happened, but time snuck up on me and now I have an 11 year old. 🥹
We couldn’t think of a more fun place to celebrate that on Castaway Cay, Disney’s private island in the Bahamas.

She started the day with presents, then hours and hours in the sun on the island, followed by cake and singing at dinner, the tween club, and fireworks at sea! (They were for pirate night but we said they were birthday fireworks!) 

Happy birthday to the most fierce, kind, competitive, loyal, funny, and beautiful little girl I know. 🩷 Never change who you are and stop growing up so fast! So. Blessed to have the best title there is, Emma Kate’s mom. 💖
