Tea Party with Grandma

For the last several years, Grandma and Grandpa have been spending the bulk of the winter in Florida.  This year, mom decided that she wanted to treat us girls to a formal tea party before heading down south.  She thought it would be fun for us all to dress up and drink tea, have treats, and use the formal silver tea set that she's never used before.


There are no pictures of me in these scenes because I was a party pooper and did not dress up for the occasion.  Yes, I am no fun at all!  The girls worked very hard to say please and thank you, eat their food daintily, not slurp their tea (hot chocolate for them), and keep their elbows off the table.  We even read a cute book about a little girl who is invited to have tea with the queen.  She tells everyone all about how she's going for tea with the queen, who as it turns out is her grandma.
