Welcome to Prarie Pi. This blog exists to journal and document the memories that our family experiences. Pi is "an amount of type that has been jumbled or thrown together at random." We hope to assemble in words and pictures the daily thoughts and activities that happen in our household. We do this to help those that are distant from us get a glimpse into our days so that the miles that separate us won't keep us apart.

Teacups and Tutus

005
This morning, Buttercup and I attended a Mother Daughter Tea.
018
We enjoyed many delicious finger foods, scones and tea and had an etiquette lesson on the proper way to have tea.
023
Buttercup was the perfect date....

...and it was fun to be with the other girls from her Little Flowers Group.

032
In the afternoon....
034
....we all watched Coco....

036
...dance in her very 1st dance rectial.

049
She danced beautifully...
055
...and was very excited to wear her hair in a bun!
057
Coco takes dance lessons at her gymnastic gym as part of her overall gymnastic instruction.....so, it was no surprise when she had to grab hold of the bars on her way out after the recital!!

I will take a Saturday filled with teacups and tutus anyday!!
A big thank you to my girls for the wonderful memories today!!!
