the tea party

we had a joint birthday party with some family friends whose daughter was turning eight.  we decided to have an outdoor tea party, and the weather was just perfect!

sampling the fondue chocolate ;-)

a school friend (who is really a head taller than her ;-))

I didn't know how the actual tea party would go over, but self-service with the tea pots (filled with lemonade and iced tea) were a hit, even with the boys

and so was the fondue

we'd borrowed cups and tea pots from everyone we know :)

 

a treat to have g&g

 

I love this one, even thought it's a bit blurry

the other family brought a pinata



post-party, on her third dress ;-)

a lovely afternoon for our lovely girl! =)
