we had tea
not sure if it was High Tea
or low tea
or just plain fun tea!
it involved 4 little girls
a grammy
and the beautiful
Mum
We tried on scarves
and gloves
and several outfits
we had
scones
and cucumber sandwiches
and other
'Fancy'
food
we had
Tea
with lots of sugar cubes
oh my
We tried to use
Good Manners
but sometimes....
you have to slurp
to get all the sugar from the bottom of the
CUP
We did have a great time. This was a spur of the moment idea suggested by the 'Mum' who was ready to get out of the house during Christmas break. We had our own room full of things to wear. We were served by the owner of 'Lavendar-N-Lace' and her husband who was dressed like a cowboy, not an English Butler (o:
This place is in Eaton Colorado and costs $10 for adults and 8 for kids. Look it up under lavender-n-lace.com

What a wonderful idea. I love the pictures Pam. It looks like a perfect way to spend an afternoon.
What a fun time, Pam. The pictures are really wonderful....all suitable for framing. How cool that they had the fancy things for everyone to wear. I bet this was really memorable for all the girls.
Love, love , love! And the pictures are great!
This is so cute and the kids with their hats look so old timie! Where did you get the hats? They looked like the old kind. I was saying to my grand daughter that on her next birthday party (not until next Oct)it would be fun to have a tea party.
What a fun day and worth the little bit of expense! It appears every one had a good time. We have a couple of tea rooms like that around here that have tea for the young ladies, too - - but they only have the hats for dress up - - not all the adorable outfits. What a treasured memory.
Hi Pam, What a delightful way to spend the day together. You all look so pretty dressed-up in your finery with hats and gloves.. just look at those adorable happy faces.
Warm hugs,
Pam i am 2
What a great time you all had! I love all the hats! I do miss those as I grew up wearing them to church every Sunday. What a wonderful place that must be. Nothing like that at all around here, although I have heard of restaurants offering teas, they don't do the costumes to go with it.
You are just the best grandma ever! I bet they loved it!!
Drinking that cup of tea with those gloves is a hoot! Loved the post, it was delightful!
Happy New Year to you and yours, dear Pam! Christmas has finally been put away and I now have more time to concentrate on my blogging. I'm looking forward to some quiet days ahead:-)
How I would have loved to have been at that tea party with you and the girls, such fun!! I love going to tea houses but I've never had the opportunity to dress up in full High Tea costume...you all looked MAH-VELOUS! hehe
Looking forward to another year of your delightful friendship:-) xoxo
FUN FUN FUN!!!! Moments the girls will treasure always. Grammy too I bet!
All the pictures are adorable.
A cowboy??
My granddaughter went to a Birthday party at a tea room like this and had a marvelous time.
I hope your are well and warm, Pam.

The pictures are just adorably precious girl!
God bless and have a marvelous weekend sweeite!!! :o)
It looks like a wonderful time. I will have to save this name for the future.
That looks like so much fun! Especially with clothes available to try on. Filing away in my grandma-idea bank.
How sweet and wonderful! Nothing better than this! blessings,Kathleen
Hi there, I'm saving this info because it is probably 30 min. from us but something I'd love to do with my girl & grands. It sounded like it was geared towards kids too.
I loved seeing the girls all dressed up-so much fun.
Hope you have a good week.

Hi there, I knew I had read this but thought maybe I forgot to comment.
I sent it to both my girls and told them we need to do this in the spring-it is close to Carrie-probably 10 min. from her place.
Thanks again for sharing.
Hugs,Noreen
