Time for an Outdoor Tea Party

"OK, Will, you're in charge of washing all the fruits and vegetables!"


"Hurry up! Our guests are arriving!!"


"OK, Will, I'm waiting. You and our guest can serve me any time now!"

Party Girl

Talk about a busy weekend! Anabelle went to three parties this weekend! And here are three of her favorite things from those parties:


Pools!


Playhouses!


Pachyderms!

School's In Session

"Yes, yes -- we'll get to the story about the moose in just a minute!"

Anabelle's Bathtub Art

"Say, Anabelle, what's that picture behind you?"


"What do you mean, 'It's you, Daddy!'?"


"Yeah, yeah, you got me. You little stinker!!"

A Young Pocahontas

"What I love most about rivers is, you can't step in the same river twice. Just around the riverbend! Just around the riverbend!!"

Fun at SpongeBob

Anabelle LOVES going to the Nickelodeon Universe theme park (which she calls "SpongeBob") at the Mall of America:


Going up!


Going DOWNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!


"Can we go again, Mom? Can we? Maybe you won't get sick this time!"


Reminds me of these pics from last year.


"We are so high and going so fast right now! I love it!!!"


"The only bad thing about this ride is that now the swings at the neighborhood park will seem lame in comparison."
