Yeah!!! Another teapot party!!! This one reminded me of when Cathy and I were very young. She was too young to come to MY tea parties so I had them with my stuffed animals. I would NEVER dress like this little girl because the only dresses we had were the ones our Cousin Mickey would buy us for Easter. They itched and made noise when you walked and were pure torture to wear. I guess since he and dad did not know much about dressing us girls, they never thought of getting us a slip!!! So my usual attire was a striped shirt and jeans..... I did have a hat for church that was almost this large!!! Memories....aren't they fun!!
This also worked for the use brown challenge. How easy is that!!!
Thank you for looking.
hugs to ALL of my sisters!!

Now this little one is REALLY ready for a tea party. We have customers come all dressed up and some come in jeans. The ones in jeans usually wish they had dressed up once they find others are really getting into the tea party atmosphere. After everyone is served I usually read some poetry or stories.......... this little girl will have a very fine time at our tea party.
Thank You

Connie Jo, what a perfect image for this week's party. Looks like one of the little girls in the photo MM gave us. Love your coloring and co-ordinating DPs.

Sis, your story 'bout them dresses sure took me back. Lol, I think we all had those itchy/scratchy things! And I am with you about being comfy, yessirreee! Your card is adorable, and I would love to see you in that Sunday hat! Hugs, Buttnik

Boy, do I remember those dresses as well, they had to make everything in my day with netting and naturally it had to be gathered right around the waist. Itchy, scratchy, uck!
Love your little girl with her big hat and shoes, she's adorable. You've done a great job with both your card and story, very enjoyable reading! TFS
