Weekend

 

I took a quick photo Friday evening just as the girls and their moms were gathering. I'm mindful to know show faces online. But I'd taken this photo of my tea pots as I was waiting for the water to be ready to fill them. The old glass coffee carafe was used for Harney and Sons Indigo Punch tea, which has the Blue Pea Flower in it and makes the tea a dark blue/purple color! The girls loved seeing the beautiful color!

I picked it knowing the girls would love the color! Many of the moms loved it too, because it is a delicious flavored tea!

This now bi-annual tea event is growing more popular and this year we had 49 moms and daughters in attendance. This is also only for 5th grade and under girls and moms!

The girls had fun stations where they could get their hair braided or made fancy with sparkle spray, pot an flower, paint their nails, and make a bracelet!

So, so fun!

I brought my tea cups, plus the Kids Ministry leader brought paper cup tea cups for the littles.

This was the set we used.

Saturday, I chauffered my grand to a few events she was wanting to be at, and then came home to put my tea things away. I reorganized how I had them displayed.

My oldest daughter dropped by after work, to do some stuff with her chickens and ducks, and stayed for dinner. I made taco salad which we all love.

Yesterday, was rainy in the morning but cleared up by lunchtime and so we took my parents to Havre de Grace to have lunch. We like The Promenade Grille. There is only outdoor seating so we had to bundle up against the chilly wind blowing on the bay but it was lovely.

Here is a photo from their FB page.

This is what it was like yesterday - windy but sunny! Then we took the long way home. It was fun, and my parents love a good road trip, too!

I hope your weekend was lovely, friends.
