Remember the birthday party that wasn't? Stacia is ready to collect on the promise of a "New Friends" party. We're going to have a Garden Tea Party (without a garden) next Saturday. I didn't know this until this afternoon. ::snort::
We used our trip to Hard Off to purchase 8 little tea cups which we'll use for favors and give away to the guests.
Arielle made these cute invites!
A small
gathering
of old
and new friends
to get reacquainted
and chat
till no end!
Join us
for a Garden Tea Party
Saturday,
29 September
2:00 –
3:30 p.m.
Stacia’s House (W700 Y)
Plans are in full swing now! I think it will be a fun party for Stacia. The focus will be all on friendship and not on birthday.
While we were at the recycle shop (thrift store)...I picked up a few more Japanese dishes...because they make me smile....and I've become a tad bit Japanese in that I like lots of small pretty dishes at a meal....and since my portions are smaller...the new dinner plates will be a treat to use. Arielle and I decided I needed to buy quite a bit as they are SURE to break and I won't be able to replace them from dishes purchased in Japan...and there needs to be a few to leave to the girls when I "pass on". Did I mention they make me smile?
How often will I be able to buy plates with this marking in Japan?
Choosing Joy!

Tell you Mom for me that those beautiful dishes also make me smile. So beautiful.

I wish they'd had more than 2 of the plates....but many of the dishes here are that dark blue so they all coordinate. LOL
ReplyDeleteArielle did a great job on the invite.
