I saved a piece of our family favorite dessert from Caiden's 21st Birthday party. If you'd like to make this ice cream dessert to share some joy, you can find the recipe here. Caiden requested this for his birthday and it truly is one of my family's all-time favorite desserts.
Paris tea is one of my all-time favorite teas, and it's going to be sipped from this special Grace's teacup from a dear friend.
My darling daughter hosted an engagement party at my house, for Elizabeth and Caiden, and she bought these gorgeous flowers from Trader Joe's, and a happily took on the task of making a pretty arrangement.
My beloved hubby always requested this ice cream dessert for his birthday, too.
This mountain biking racing family did another race in Warda, TX for the Texas Mountain Buke Race Association state championship. Texas must have several several state championships under different associations. Harper got first and little Hayden got fourth. In the bottom photo, Kevin was a volunteer sweep, which means he can help anyone out if they need it, and he could ride in with Hayden at the end.
The engagement party for Caiden and Elizabeth was a wonderful success. Our family and Elizabeth's family celebrated together, with my daughter Molly hosting it at my house since I'm more centrally located. Molly is such an amazing hostess, doing everything with grace and ease. She had the most beautiful charcuterie spread on my kitchen island, and then beautiful vanilla and chocolate cupcakes on my table. She had about ten pictures in frames of Caiden and Elizabeth on my mantle along with a Congratulations banner, and light-up letters on the table, spelling out "engaged". I am so proud of her and the love she has for her family.
Happy Memorial Day to all of you! I am truly thankful for all who served. God bless America!
I'm sharing with these parties:
That ice cream dessert looks yummy! Glad you had such a nice engagement party for Caiden.
