Father's Day Fun



Sunday June 15, was not only Father's Day...it was also

Anna & Emma White's 1st Birthday!


Jess & I with our babes;
Emma, Tripp & Anna

I decided to make their gift. I must admit, I am not as motivated as you might think.....A fellow blogger has inspired me to become more crafty. She makes all sorts of lovely items. So I decided to try my hand at dyeing. Tie Dyeing to be specific. I took the time, spent the money and got real textile dyes and fixative chemicals. I decided that I would dye cute little dresses to resemble Strawberries or Watermelons...and I threw in a couple of tank tops for fun.


The results!
Unfortunately I did not get a chance to paint the seeds on the dresses...
looks like I'll be busy at our next play date!


It was a cloudy sky, but we didn't let that damper our day!
The girl's first birthday party was held at a pavilion in a local park in Cromwell, CT. It was great! We could play baseball, basketball, Frisbee, you name it and there was a playground only a short stroll away!

Tripp loved watching the big kids play.



Yummy! Cake!





Then off to the playground to burn off some of that ice cream cake energy!










1 more wagon ride before we go



We had a great time but, Tripp was anxious to get home for some Daddy time!
