The story behind the name

I have always loved sea glass because of the beautiful green, blue and brown hues that are made even more breathtaking when they are tossed in the water. I am also drawn to pretty glass bottles, especially those with unique shapes, textures or stories. When we purchased our land, it had lot of garbage where our driveway now sits. Included in this garbage were lots of glass bottles in all different shapes, sizes and colors. As unappealing as this may sound, there have been many beautiful and unique glass bottles found at the property. While we obviously do not want to drive on a green glass road, the road itself was only made possible after lots of green glass was recovered. So therin lies the story behind the name of the Adventures at Green Glass Road.

March 17, 2012-Julia's American Girl Doll Bistro Adventure

For Julia's birthday, Mommy, Grandma, Great Aunt Jeanne and Nikki took Julia to lunch at the American Girl Doll Store Bistro at Tysons Corner, VA



Julia was in heaven with all the pink, but also because she got to select her two favorite foods for lunch!

 The bistro had quite the ambiance as well....




 And her dolls, Elizabeth and Coco, got the royal treatment as well!




All in all, it was a very special day, for a very special girl!

March 16, 2012: Julia's Party-Take Two

Julia had a 50's Sock Hop Party with her family this year.  And a sock hop wouldn't be complete with out some poodle skirts.  There was a poodle skirt of the cake....

 On her American Girl Dolls (thanks to Grammy and Grampy Evenson)

 And of course, on the birthday girl, herself!

 Even Andrew got in the 50's spirit by dressing like a 1950's teenager.

 Of course, the birthday was made complete by the company of her family and their generosity.

Julia celebrated her 6th birthday at the pool with some friends.



They all had a great time eating pizza, cookie cake and swimming.  After a little sugar, they also enjoyed a lot of laughter.


I am going to have to try more in the upcoming year not to blink so much...time certainly does fly by!
