The month of April has brought us two birthdays! For Emma's 6th Birthday (no, we can't believe she is 6!) we had a Gnomeo and Juliet party!
Torrie made Emma a signature cake, with the battle line drawn.
All of Emma's Sunday School Classmates chose sides, either blue for Gnomeo, or red for Juliet. Of course, Emma and Charlotte were red gnomes.
Emma improved on her costume with the use of some wrapping paper.
We planted sunflowers, a favorite pastime of gnomes.
Followed by "Freeze Gnome"
We spotted a real gnome in our yard! We named him Condie, because his white hair reminded us of someone.
We took turns hiding, and finding our gnome.
We finished by fishing for our party favors, a gnome favorite.
A few nights later when Papa Haupt and Papa Word where here we had our birthday tradition of lighting sky laterns. Charlotte stood in for Kate.
Papa Haupt helped Charlotte with her lantern.
Papa Haupt handed off the lantern to Charlotte.
Papa Word co-piloted the latern with Emma.
We sailed our lanterns at twilight.
We had a wonderful month of April, and are excited to celebrate the birth of two wonderful girls in a month that is fast becoming a family favorite.
