Tessa's Birthday! The Big 3!

For some reason I got it into my head, that Tessa needed a Dorothy dress. Maybe it's because we gave her ruby slippers last year! I don't know. I've had the material....since oh....sometime last fall. I started making the dress at 6:30 p.m. August 8th! I finished the dress at 3:30 p.m. August 9th. Birthday Party started at 6:30 p.m. (I did get a good night's sleep too!)

I even had enough time to hide all my boo-boos! I was creative in fixing things I had totally done wrong!!! All in all....not too shabby and the bows I added to hide some of the flaws actually make the dress cuter!!!

I basted the hem because I wanted to be able to hem it properly after Tessa had tried it on. The back hem of the dress is way longer than the front, but that's easy to fix!!!
The Princess Party!
The Princess Cake!The Princess! Blowin' out the candles! Ma & Pa Lemley gave her roller skates and I'm sure she just might be the next Roller Derby Queen!!!! Go get 'em Tessa!

July 2011

On July 11th Patricia, Elizabeth and Louie came to Utah to visit!
We took them to Temple Square.

We visited the Tabernacle and saw the movie, Joseph Smith Prophet of the Restoration. It is new! They have re-edited it! It's awesome. If you haven't seen it go see it on the big screen at the JSMB!!!


We had a great visit!

Louie is getting so big!!!!

He never fusses when I have him. In fact, he's a really good baby and doesn't fuss alot!

Here he is with Uncle Eddie!

Doesn't like Uncle Eddie as much as he does me!!!

These are the flower arrangements I made for Kevin and Amy's reception in Utah!

I forgot how much I love to arrange flowers!


Dane & Kelsey Sorensen got married. This is their candy table. I lvoed Barbie and Ken and Barbie's Corvette!

We went to Newport Beach for Nicholas and Katlyn's wedding!

Love the unique architecture of the Newport Temple!

Love ALL the doors!

Nicholas & Katlyn Barry and their Sealer.

This is David Barry's handy craftsmanship! He said it took him months to plan and build this. He did an awesome job!!!

July 2011

Happy 4th of July! We went to the Balloon Festival!
Darth Vader was the new balloon this year and it was awesome!


This is about as high as any balloon got. It became rather windy and the balloons were brought down in like 10 seconds flat! Folded up, Stowed away and that was the end of the balloons!


It was fun while it lasted!


My favorite balloon is always the pig, cuz pig don't fly! I also like Smokey Bear, but Darth Vader was the coolest!!!


Baby James enjoying the morning!
My first time in my new camp chair! Did I tell you we were there at 6:30 a.m.!


July 8th was Kevin and Amy's reception in Utah. Becky and I did the decorating!


Becky did most of the work!!! Sister Powell let me borrow her trees and centerpieces! I did the flower arranging though!!!


It turned out nice!


They look happy!!!


Korin and Mark, Jaden and Zakiah came all the way from Richmond to see Waldo at his reception! Korin knew Kevin when he went through his Waldo stage!!! He called her Tiger Lily. It was great to see them! We must go visit them soon!
