Valentines Tea

Yesterday we celebrated Valentines Day with a glorious tea! It was simply lovely – we had raspberry tea with strawberry banana crepes, which were absolutely delicious!

We had such fun setting the table in shades of red and pink… so festive!

 Here are Carley and I enjoying ourselves. Carley makes the BEST pancakes/crepes, especially when we add strawberries and bananas!

 And Courtney and Mom are looking so pleasant as they enjoy their tea. Dad was actually out of town, but came home later that evening. So us ladies just had a “girlie” tea time full of memories.

 Well, I hope you have enjoyed these pictures of our Valentines Tea! Wish you all could have joined us!

 

Tea on a Rainy Day

Today my sister’s and I awoke to a very foggy and rainy morning. So with the perfect backdrop, we created a “Rainy Day Tea Party”. It was a lovely tea, complete with scones, jam, cute little sugar cubes and hot English Breakfast tea – my favorite!

Here I pour the tea using my favorite teapot from a set Mom and Dad got me for my graduation… isn’t it beautiful? Carley made her famous scones that were delicious as always – she is a wonderful baker.

To the right is me greatly enjoying my tea – and of course the delightful company! My sisters are my favorite people to have tea with… they always make it interesting and fun. (Oh… as you can see I got my hair cut short! It has taken my awhile to get used to it, but I think it is growing on me (get it).)

 And below is Courtney and Carley enjoying themselves as usual! It is always so hard for us to stay composed while having tea… we usually burst into laughter before too long!

They both look about ready to laugh!

I am so thankful for my sweet sisters… they bear through all my tea parties with a grin and giggles. I don’t think they would like tea if it wasn’t for me; they are so gracious.

Well, this was our rainy day tea! I hope you enjoyed and are inspired to have your own tea moments – and share them with your siblings! They bring such delight and fun.
