~Of Tea and Treats and Valentine's Day...

Yesterday, at precisely two o'clock, a host of little girls arrived at our home for a

~Valentine's Day Tea~

Hearts were strung o'er the room..

Doily placemats added to the effect!

..The table was arrayed in finery, and the delicacies were laid out accordingly.

Mini brownie treats

M & M candies in a pretty heart basket

I did Anne's hair especially for the occasion. <3

..It turned out quite nicely with a few "accessories" I had on hand! Not to mention the fact that she is indeed wearing my clothing..crazy how time flies! *wilt*

Hostess and table

Tea and cake!

More decore

..There were stories read, treats partaken of, games played, and valentines shared. This was an occasion for the "American Girl Club," so naturally there was some 'doll-talk,' too. ;)

The whole party!

..Overall, it was a satisfying event. :)

~Today is my sweet friend Dani's 18th birthday. She is a dear friend of mine, whom I have known for two years via pen-palling. We hope to someday meet the lovely H. Family, perhaps in the near fututre! Visit her blog and leave her a birthday note, if you will... I'm sure they would appreciate a few "surprise" followers, too...;)
