This weekend we (Liza & I) threw our cuz, Aubrey, her Bridal Shower and Tea party. Aubrey had a great time, as did all of her guests!
Liza and I were a couple of dorks though! We were like little girls having a tea party! All giggly and stuff with all the cute tea sandwiches, yummilicious deserts, tea cups, tea party accessories (mostly the honey dipper thingy).
And my MOM got the 1st two lumps of sugar! I was a MEGA dork too! She walked over and I served her sugar to her and I asked her, "One lump or two?". Lordy, how nerdy am I!!!! We giggle and she took two. Sooo funny!
We had a great time with great games and great food and great tea! We had hot blueberry tea, hot gunpowder mint tea, and a really nice hot Japanese green tea.
Take a look at Liza's blog for more details about the party...she's got some great pics! http://www.monkeylemur.blogspot.com/
Here are some of my pics!
mmmmmmm mmmmmmm
The tea cups...John picked them all out especially for us!
Let the bridal shower games begin!
Aubrey hit the "Crack" Pot!!
The party was terrific! If I might add, we rocked at planning that party as we balance our day to day life with 4 kids between the two of us! We rock!!! And so does Aunt Deb (for lending us her house & some cool dishes), John (for doing much of the shopping), the grandmothers (for lending us the napkins), and Nick & John (for all the support and funding the party)!!!

Wow, your party looks so fancy! And your tea cups are BEAUTIFUL!
Blueberry tea????? Where did you find it? and how was it? Oh my gosh, I am going to be dreaming about that stuff until I give it a try!
thanks girl. that party was so nice and relaxing! we have to give props to my shoppin' hubby for those tea cups! He's a shoppin' fool & finds great deals!
the blueberry tea was also another find of john's a couple of yrs back. it really is good. i think it's a black tea with a hint of blueberry. it tastes great with and without sugar. john often makes it into an unsweetened ice tea. oh, it's also a loose leaf tea. And we get it from central market. i think they also sell it at tevana. let me know if you can't find any. i'd be more than happy to get you some and mail it to you.
