Last night we had a little surprise going away party. It was completely fabulous of our friends to throw one for us. Tom and I thought we were just going to our neighbors' house for a quiet going away dinner with just the three of them. When we arrived, they suggested we head down to the picnic tables at the park to enjoy the cool evening. We were up for this and helped gather up the food to take to the park. But, when we arrived at the park, there were our friends waiting to surprise us! Yippee! Here are few photos.
We wanted LB to be in the picture with us, but she refused, so that's why we have this candidate shot for Awkward Family Photos:
And this morning, Nannie Annie and Poppy Teddie arrived from Australia to help us with the big move. Double yippee! They were too tired for photos, but here's some shots of all of the fab pressies they brought.
Lilybeth waiting very patiently for Nannie Annie to come in so that the presents can be opened.
A little weasel that chases a ball. Thanks, Poppy!
Some serious present unwrapping.
That above package turned out to be some great books from Great Auntie Fran and Great Uncle Peter.
Audrey Hepburn goodies for Tom. Thanks, Em & Rob!
Some warm Washington clothes from Nannie and Poppy.
And a beautiful coat from the Vernon family! I love it!
Thanks, everyone!
We thought the red would work well with lilybeth's beautiful hair. The only piccie missing is on of mummy in her slinky nightie? Did it fit? How wonderful your friends through the surprise party, looks like alot of fun. I thought Tom could use the Audrey bag as Lb's nappy bag when he's out n about in Washington.
