Tea Time With The Girls

It was a little strange not having Glenn around - I know the girls missed him because they wanted to hold the chickens and even though I would let the chickens out, catching them for the girls is not down my alley!!

We took a walk up Brittany as the girls decided we needed some exercise!

Yum - hot chocolate and homemade banana/blueberry muffins!!

And then it was time to dress for the tea!!  The girls had matching dresses from Easter so were eager to get them on and be twins!!

We headed over to Cripple Creek and our table was all ready for us!  Don't the girls just look darling sitting there?

Even though I knew the girls probably didn't like hot tea, they insisted on ordering it - and of course they didn't like it!!  Kenzie did end up drinking hers (after putting scoop after scoop of honey in it) and Aleah ordered lemonade which she still got to drink out of the cup!!

They were amazed at the tiny little forks and spoons!


Our first course was fresh strawberries and blackberries topped with whipped cream - they ate that right down!!!  Next were the tiny sandwiches - they did like the chicken salad and the turkey - not so much on the pimento cheese!!  But then the next plate came out and it had PB&J so they were thrilled!  I thought they would love the cucumber ones too - but they didn't care for the cream cheese underneath which had a garlic flavor to it (it was excellent) so they ate the cucumbers and I ate the rest of it!

Last was dessert - chocolate/cinnamon scones with whipped cream - and they loved that!!

A lot of people that came in the store stopped by to tell me how cute they were and how lovely their dresses were - of course the girls' loved all the attention!!

When we came out of the tea place, there were 2 donkeys across the street so we headed right over!!  The girls got to pet the white one, even though he kept trying to nudge the leftover scone box right out of my hand!!  He even followed us down the street but I didn't budge on giving him the scones!!

It was movie and popcorn night back home but I can't even remember which movie on Netflix they watched!  I must have been busy on the computer!!

Last night to giggle and talk in the guest room - they sure had a fun time sleeping together!!
