Maddie’s Party

We gathered for Maddie’s Party before the graduation ceremony. About 60 people attended.

The menu was sliders, french fries, coleslaw, pickles and cake.

Graduation Cake

The cake…that is her horse dog Deacon.

That blue food coloring was something else.  Trica asked her father if he was feeling okay, he had blue lips.Mom and Maddie and Quilt

My Mom made Maddie a small quilt.  It has horses in the material.

Great family photos. I think it's special that your mom made a quilt as a gift. Love it! The party menu sounds great! That blue frosting isn't even a light blue. It looks dark! Beautiful cake.

It is always fun to see your grandchildren lined up for pictures. All of them look kind and sweet.

It looks like it is true that we shrink- - lose height - - as we age! Judging from the grands' faces, it looks like they had a super fun time!

A big event indeed. Congratulations to the graduate. We went to Hayden Prairie in Iowa on Sunday and saw hundredd of Yellow Ladyslippers just like your header...:) And for the second time ever several small clumps of the white version.

Wowsa! What a cake....funny about the blue lips. Congratulations to your granddaughter! What a nice menu....I just got done mowing and I'm hungry...sorry. I always love your pictures of the grands...oldest to youngest and tallest to shortest...what a hoot! I love horses too and I sure miss mine. What a great quilt your Mom made for her. Where's the picture of you and Far Guy with her?

A quilt maker who is still quilting. There are so few of that generation that does that anymore. Today the younger ones are creating artworks and not following block repeats for patterns. Graduation party time and the cake looked great and blue too.
