Yesterday was my little one's 4th birthday tea party. As you can see, while we were setting up she was all smiles. I have to say it was such a fun day and after all the planning and set up it was so worth it! A comment on the pictures. . . my sweet hubby was playing photographer, and while he got many great shots, he did not get any of the food or tables all done up! Ahhh!!! All that work and no pictures! The kids and moms seemed to have a nice time so in the end I guess that's all that matters. Here we go!
We had a table for the moms to enjoy their tea and yummies, and lots of pretty flowers.
Francesca was all dressed and ready to go!
The girls had fun frolicking around the garden blowing bubbles in their pretty dresses and hats.
I just loved this shot!
It wouldn't be a tea party without a rendition of "I'm a Little Teapot." 
Then it was time to eat! They gathered around for lots of yummy snacks. .
and fun finger sandwiches. Who doesn't love pink and purple bread?
It was then time for a few activities. . .
which gave the moms and grandma a chance to enjoy some tea, cucumber sandwiches and petite fours. Yum!
After much fun it was time to open presents.
Then it was time for cake!
This is what my son thought of the whole thing. . pink, girls, yuck!
She loved her snowball shaped cake which had to be pink of course!
The party ended with smiles, laughter and fun playing with good friends.

Cariie,
How endearing to see the little one's dressed up in their finery. It made me think of other day's when dresses were the norm not the exception. It looks like they had great fun. What joy!

I am up early and trying to stay quite. What better way is there to spend the time than to find wonderful blogs like yours? What a wonderful party you had, and the rest of your blog is terrific! I will be back for more inspiration.
I love seeing little girls all dressed up like little porcelein dolls. They all looked adorable and Francesca's smile looks like it could have lit your whole town! What a nice party.
