Social Event of the Season

What do you do when you have a mound of dirty laundry to wash and fold, a sink full of dirty dishes, and several other household chores to do? You simply accept your daughter's invitation to the social event of the season, tea at high noon. When playing in her toy chest, EK came across her tea set and that started off our day of parties, two to be exact.

Here is a picture of the little hostess. Among those in attendance: Sir Emmett Wilson as seen below eating some tender young green beans...mmmm.




Who knew a star puff would get such a reaction?

Here is the party getting under way.

Miss Priss wore her tutu, of course, along with some jewelry. She started out wearing a pair of her plastic heels but opted for bare feet.

Miss Bunnadette "Bunny" Grace was also in attendance.

This being Little Man's first tea party, Miss EK had to show him that he would indeed have his own tea cup and not the whole pot.

He seemed okay with this and kept his paci close by.

As Miss EK said herself, the tea was "dewishous".

Miss Bunny played shy as her photo was snapped. Of course, this handcrafted pink plastic bead necklace was on loan.

Miss EK pointed out the fine craftsmanship.

The host took time to show her appreciation to Sir Emmett for his attendance.

She even tried to loan him some of her personal jewels but then realized that she would be running the risk of having the valuables eaten.

As the high noon tea party concluded, the guest each took their respective naps and decided to have yet another gathering in the afternoon hours.

This is Miss EK showing off her "squishy" frog.

As you can see the afternoon tea began with lively conversation, as well as some more guests (sitting on the bed).

Always the hostess, Miss EK wasted no time in serving Miss Bunny.

Sir Emmett and Miss Bunny decided that a staring contest was in order.

The above contest brought on much laughter.

Once again Miss Bunny was captured showing off her elegant style. She thoroughly enjoyed getting good use out of her Derby hat.
