Tea Time!

Today, my mom and I went up to Lexington to surprise my Grandma with a tea party for her birthday (bday next Wednesday).  Mom called ahead of time to let Grandma know she would be in town around noon.  It's not unusual for mom and dad to be in the area, visiting or running errands.  We kept it a secret that I'd be there, or what we were doing.  So

Wow, this is so wonderful! Beautiful photos!

We had such a great time. One of those circumstances where the photos you take just never quite capture how nice it was :D

This porch is like the epitome of what a grandmothers porch should look like :-)
and I LOVE what you all were wearing.
That pic of your Mom... awwwwwwww....

This is truly and purely beautiful, in the highest and best sense.

Thank you!! I do love that picture of my mom. She's a lovely lady and she tends to have photophobia...as soon as a camera comes out she starts making strange faces from nervousness, so I was happy to capture a relatively relaxed shot of her :)

What a fantastic and thoughtful surprise.

I tend to feel that we should all take every opportunity to get dressed up and drink tea and eat yummy tartlets and cookies. :)

[medievalmuse]

Or just be yummy tartlets ourselves! HA.

LOL SO true.

She is absolutely an amazing woman. So is my mom for helping me put together this whole thing...my partner in crime!

Oh, what a wonderful surprise for her! And a happy afternoon for all. :)

She was still raving about how fun it was when I talked to her last night! :)
