Mad-Hatter Tea Party
>> Thursday, August 14, 2008
In honor of our Sweet Hanna, we decided to have a Mad-Hatter Tea Party. The theme stemmed from the scene in 'Alice in Wonderland' when Alice comes across the Mad-Hatter and the March Hare having a tea party. Alice at one point apologizes for interrupting their birthday party. To which the March Hare responds with 'Ha, this is not a birthday party.... its and un-birthday party.'
We instructed everyone to wear their silliest hats, and for those that chose not to participate, they were given either 'Lighting McQueen' or 'Elmo' birthday hats to wear instead. A very warm Thank You to everyone that participated. It made the date a little easier to bear with family close. Although her time here with us was short, and the memories are few, may the memory of her always live within us all. I will post pictures of all your silly hats in my next post!

I feel like an idiot now. I didn't realize that your Hanna had passed on. What a sweet way to remember her.
Was yesterday her birthday, or the anniversary of her passing?
Please don't feel like an idiot! Yesterday was her both her birthday and the 4 year anniversary of her passing. She was born quietly after 23 hours of labor. Her story will be posted as this weeks Flashback Friday! Thanks for the kind words!
