At Christmas this past year, all the little girls in our family received some matching, fun dress up pieces from Aunt Susan & my cousin Sami: a leopard print shrug (?), a black headband and black sparkly purse. So cute. Immediately, my mom said "Wouldn't it be fun to have them all wear them together and have a tea party?" Well, all of the girls' birthdays fall in mid to late spring, so mom thought we should try to plan it in May sometime to fall in between the birthdays. She looked into it and decided to make a reservation at Clara J's Tea Room in Maumee. It really wasn't intended to be a Mother's Day thing, but it was the perfect outing for Mother's Day weekend!
The girls wore dresses and brought fancy hats and then we just took pictures afterward with their black dress up apparel. :)
We tried a couple of different teas (with our pinkies held up, or course) and had dainty lunches served to us. Sophie was a bit ornery and we were all a little worried to be in such fragile surroundings with these little girls, but it was a fun and memorable morning and we all had a great time.
Somehow, this is the only picture I have of Casey, Mya & Stella. Not sure how that's possible! But I think I was just trying to make sure nothing broke and they were seated at the other end of the table.
My cousin, Molly, and her daughter, Cora.
Also, my cousin Abbey was there with us. :)
I'm looking more cowboy-ish in a too-small, child's hat... but Sophie insisted on wearing the red one and that I wear hers. Hence the orneriness I mentioned earlier.
Haha!
The pretty & dainty food presentation was so cute.

Soph and I walked around the rest of the house, which was partially set up as a gift shop. Such a cute place! A little bit "foo foo", but that's part of the fun. :)
There are a lot of these. The girls were getting antsy and probably a little sleepy. But they're cute!
