First of Gillian's birthday Parties for the year

Lily will turn 5 in a week, so while we were in Maine we had a little party for her with the cousins and aunties/uncles and mummi and papa. Well...not so little when your family is this big ;) It was going to be a tea party. Then it got so hot it became an iced tea and water gun fight party. She loved it!
