Valentine Tea Party








Today we had our Valentine Tea. I had all 4 of my Grandchildren here and 2 of their friends. We had cucumber sandwiches, pimento cheese sandwiches,cherry cupcakes with chocolate buttercream icing, pink lemonade and tea. We then made homemade valentines. It was a good day!

I already have 4.....and my youngest daughter is expecting QUADRUPLETS......so I have good times ahead of me!!

  5. Oh Elizabeth! It all looks so lovely (I'm going back to view it all again). And I loved the additional peeks of your new home, the arched doorways, especially, and I've never seen plate racks like yours--very, very cool. Lovely children and grandmother, too! :) Thanks for sharing with us.... Blessings, Debra

  15. What a sweet Valentine's Day party! I can just imagine all the guests feeling very special.

    In answer to your question: The paper dolls for those two characters are connected on the bottom. They do not stand alone as all other characters do.
