Tea Time!

I hope you had a fabulous weekend! I know that I did. It was a busy one though. We had a baby luncheon that should have been a baby shower, but sweet Baby L wanted to come a little too early. We missed her mama at the shower, but hope she enjoyed all her goodies. We also had Baptism celebration. Busy, busy!

Today marks that a whole year has gone by since I lost my wonderful grandfather. I still tear up every day. And honestly, there is a moment every day that I remember that he is gone and I feel like the wind has been knocked out of me.

Anyway, a few weeks ago, my niece decided to throw a tea party for some of her friends. There wasn't a lot of time to plan and set up the party, but I think it turned out pretty awesome. I hope you enjoy the pictures. There aren't very many since no one thought to bring their camera!

Here is the spread that my mom came up with. It was super adorable and so sweet. I  love pretty parties.

The Menu:

• Iced tea/lemonade mix

The big girl. She was SO excited. It was the cutest thing ever. Here she is dancing in the sunlight.

We made little tea party hats before lunch. Here is my girl in hers.

And I will leave you with a little laugh. Here is a silly picture of me and my girl. My little best friend is licking her lips and trying to get every single bit of leftover cupcake frosting. Thank goodness they were mini ones!

Enjoy your Monday!
