Tea Party with Granddaughters

 I treated my three oldest granddaughters to a Princess Tea at the Chocolate Angel Tea Room, this past Saturday.  Nine month old Harper is a couple years away from joining us. We were all so looking forward to this event.  The tea room provided tiaras, necklaces, bracelets, rings and wands for the girls to use while they were there.  We all had different teacups and we all tried the white hot tea blend, and then the girls also had lemonade. 


 The girls had PB & J cut out heart sandwich, a turkey and cheese cracker stack, fruit kabob, veggies and dip, mini muffin, and a white chocolate and cranberry scone.  A pretty flower adorned each plate. 

 For dessert, the girls were served a sugar cookie and a pink cupcake.  


 Here's my plate of assorted tea delicacies.  Everything was wonderful to this Nana!  It's such a treat to enjoy a tea where someone else prepares the food!!

 

 Here is my dessert plate!  Mmmm... we were all treated royally.


The tea room is decorated in a shabby chic decor, with pale aqua walls, lots of frames without pictures, mirrors,  and tarnished silver.

The girls came home with me and spent the night.  We had a pj party with more treats and fun times!  What fun memories to share!


My dearly beloved hubby of 43 years passed away two years ago on August 16, 2013.  I'm thankful that his legacy lives on in our children and grandchildren.  


Thank you for your visit.  It is greatly appreciated.  xo

I am sharing this with these lovely parties:

  8. What a wonderful outing for the girls with their pretty Nana! {Love your lace top!} The food looks fabulous and I know exactly what you mean by it being a treat to be waited on because I usually do all the cooking too. :) Two years since your darling passed is hard to believe, although not for you, I'm sure.

  49. Kitty, you are SUCH a beautiful lady!!! Your granddaughters should have really good genes! It looks like the four of you had a wonderful tea time and then a pajama party to end the day. Just perfect!! Would you believe I've still never been to a tea room? I really want to go for a nice tea sometime; I've just got to make plans and do so.

    I know you still miss Rich with all your heart, and yes, you're blessed to have those wonderful children and grandchildren. Thinking of you, Kitty; hope your upcoming week is a good one.

    Warm hugs,

    Your grandgirls had to have had the time of their life! What a delightful tea room & you look FANTASTIC, Kitty!! It was good to see all those smiles...and the treats, too. YUM!!
    You've inspired me to schedule a trip BACK to the tea room we went to years ago for my birthday. We are long overdue for a return trip.
