Can you believe what happened??? I leave town for a day and am unable to make the tea party at Cindy's and look what happens!!! Not only does Charlie the Church Mouse sneak out of the house without my knowledge, but he also drags along his little cousin Charlene!!
So when I get home and can't find them, where do I find them??? At Cindy's! And just look at them. I'll admit I am much like most people when it comes to cupcakes. Golly who doesn't like a good, yummy, sweet cupcake. And chocolate too??? Yum!!!
But to gorge myself on the things! Well!!! I don't know what Charlie and Charlene were thinking. And what is worse, they also brought along Roy!! Do you see Roy? NO! Roy is off gambling with the gorilla again.
What is a Minister's Wife supposed to do with her mice?? Does anyone know??? I guess I am just going to have to make sure I don't miss anymore tea parties at Cindy's!! I certainly don't want this to happen again.

Rut Roh! Charlene and Charlie and Roy too are gonna be so mad at me! I encouraged them and promised them you would never find out! Darn, they are never gonna trust me again. Oooh! I know! I will just get them more ooey gooey cupcakes as a peace offering and maybe I will talk the gorilla into throwing a few games, Roy pretty much stinks at poker!
Your card is amazing! So wonderfully colored, so beautifully done! I love this image, its one of my favorites! And you know I get goose bumps over the polka dots! Its just lovely!
I think your plan is perfection! You better keep an eye on those critters, no telling what they will get into at the tea party! Besides, the thought of you never missing a tea party is another thing that gives me goose bump! Hee!

Chocolate cupcakes, I missed those. All I saw were white cake, and champagne cakes, and maybe some strawberry cupcakes. I missed you too. I am glad that you shared this cute card.

I was wondering why you weren't at the tea party but now I know! Not only were you gone but had big troubles when you returned. Love the chocolate polka dot paper you chose for your delightful image.

Those mice - they love their flowers, but give them anything to eat and they sure seem to lose all self-control. I wonder is Charlene ripping up the cupcake case to make a nice cosy pink nest! Glad they didn't find the chocolate-button brads you tucked up out of their way.
We are braving my dad's mouse infestation next weekend, but I am bringing food ready cooked so I don't have to clean his kitchen from top to bottom before I start.
