Armenian Lost Tooth Party

Back in October (2020) Miles lost his first tooth so we decided to celebrate Armenian style. I don't know if this is a more recent thing but when I went back to Armenia in 2016, First Lost tooth parties were a big thing! We happened to walk in on one, as well as see lots of decorations sold in stores. We hadn't heard of this celebration back when we were there in 2007-2008. I'm wondering if its a celebration that came about from social media...kinda like gender reveal parties? Anyway, I don't really care how it came about, it was a great excuse to celebrate the wonderful person that Miles is as well as make Armenian food and cake! So that's just what we did. 

 

I also got to take out some of my fancy Armenian dishes!

 

The extent of my cupcake decorating skills!

Dolma-Armenian Style! Turned out wonderful!

Kartoshka (potato) Pirashkis-turned out decent. 

Our cousins and Grandma Sharolee came and we listened to Armenian music and ate Armenian food and had a fun time making memories and celebrating MILEStones. (Ha, get it?)
