Time for Tea

Tatum loves to have tea parties, something that was introduced to her by her Grampy-Grammy.  At the end of the last school year I mentioned that maybe sometime this summer we could have some friends over for a tea party.   She did not forget me saying this & held me to it.  We picked out invitaions, planned our menu, & decorated for what now will most likely be a yearly tradition.  Grammy let us use her rose china, so we decorated with shades of pink.  Everyone wore pretty dresses & hats and enjoyed an assortment of tea party foods (this to Tatum means little).  The lunch started with finger sandwiches, pineapples cut into daisies with a cantaloupe center, chocolate covered strawberries, & cream puffs.  The "tea" was pink lemonade, which went very nicely with our decor.  After lunch each young lady was given mini-strawberry cupcakes to decorate themselves.  The lunch was filled with lots of conversation, giggles, & laughter.  It really was quite cute.  After the meal, everyone made a picture frame for their tea party picture.
Tatum did a really nice job at being the hostess.  It was so fun to have a little girl time!

Thanks to all Tatum's guests for coming: Brilyn Broadway, Peighton McKenna, Asley & Braelyn Baker, Natalie Rodgers, Lorin Bowers, Amara Foret, & Kyla Thompson.

Watch for these future debutants in the Yukon society pages!

Hi girl!

Thank you for your sweet words. I figure if anyone knows what they're talking about, it's you! As a matter of fact, I've thought about you a lot during the last few weeks and I gained strength from knowing your story and knowing how beautiful your family is.

And yes, my husband is an OSU alum...haha. He likes to play guns to though...:)
