This past Sunday morning, both Lauren and I spent the morning at home while Andy took the older girls to church. For over a week, Lauren and I have been coughing up just about everything under the sun and Sunday was no different. Before long, I coerced myself from the sofa to do some laundry and the rest of the house was as quiet as can be, just the hum drum of the dryer and a little mouse setting up another tea party.
After awhile, the familiar pitter patter of three-year-old little feet were at my side inviting me in for a lovely tea party. A darling scene ensued:


Have some tea, Mama! A little for her friends, too.

A very important part of a tea party around these parts is Snow White’s vase with plastic flower (it cracks me up that they go searching for this before the tea party can begin):

Lauren’s such a gracious hostess:

She didn’t forget storytime during the tea party- I love that she happened to have Sarah’s Bible close by and that she was “reading” about Joseph to us (never mind that Sarah didn’t bring her Bible to church):


She’s a very animated storyteller
Tea break:

Then my hostess had to stretch her legs and surprised me with a little twirling. Darling, right?
Did I mention how beautiful I think she is?
I do!
Put this on your list of things to look forward to doing, when you come visit, Grammy

I love that scrunched up smiling face (I think it was the 2nd picture). She’s so adorable! Glad you could enjoy your Sunday even though you weren’t feeling 100%!
I totally think this should be in your list of 10 free things you love. Free tea with a special girl. How can that not be in there? Love that she is telling you a story during tea time.
That is so cute, girly, frilly, soft, and sweet.
