A Delightful Tea Party

 A homeschooling friend of ours invited us to attend a tea party. The boys were ever so excited! Joshua asked if he may wear a tie. We picked a bouquet of fresh mums from our flower beds and tied them with a cheerful ribbon, and pulled a jar of peach preserves we had canned as hostess gifts.

 The table setting was lovely. The boys really liked the crustless sandwiches. Joshua especially liked the cucumber sandwiches, and Joseph favored the sunbutter and jelly.

 It was just precious to listen to the polite manners from all six children. They each enjoyed having milk and sugar in their tea.

 Everyone enjoyed getting dressed up in their tea party outfits, but most of all we enjoyed the fellowship of good friends!
Our hostess had made pinwheel favors for each guest. These might have been the icing on the cake!

We shall have to do this again soon!

Blessings,
