Tea Party!

My Thompson cousins get together once a month for a Book Club. It's a great excuse to see one another more often! Once a year, one of these book clubs is also a Tea Party! Yes, the book usually has something to do with tea. This year, the book was Alice In Wonderland.

My cousins go ALL out with the decorations: on the far wall it says, "You're late for a very important date," there were beautiful fresh cut tree blossoms of every kind, not to mention the pretty tea cups and saucers, lace curtains and table cloths, and of course scrumptious treats!!

They also made everyone these delightful little hats! We all dress-up for the occasion too! Here are pictures of all the family "groups".
Me and my sister, Mickelle
The Aunts: Shauna, Alyson, and Joan (holding a cousin's baby, Eden)
Tabitha, Sariah, Rebekkah, and Abigail
Liz, Marianne, Peggy, Lucy and Aunt Mary
These girls were the hostesses with the mostest! :)
Tim, Stef, Melissa, and Shauna (again)
Everyone!
Thanks for a fun party!

What a random but really fun tradition. That's great that you all live so close, too. By the way, Laura, I think that hat looks dashing on you. You might want to consider incorporating it into your daily wardrobe.

That is so much fun! I simply love getting together with family. It is so great that you have a family that likes getting together as much as possible.
