Beth's 8th Birthday Tea Party

My girl Beth has wanted a girl's only tea party for years!  We took her to a tea house for her 6th birthday with two of her cousins, and it was a great birthday...but not what she wanted.  She wanted a party at home with her tea cups.  I told her this would be the year...and then we bought a house, remodeled, and moved in mid-remodeling.  Her birthday was a week after move-in...but I had said we would do it so we did. 
It would not have happened without the help of our wonderful visitors from North Carolina.  The Longs are here staying with us.  They cleaned up the yard, mowed the lawn, hung decorations, moved furniture, and just made it that much more of a special day! 
 I also had the gift of Roberta Keenan making all the food for us. 
 Beth put in her special requests and Roberta delievered. 
The girls ate lunch and then had multiple desserts!
and we sang to the birthday girl.
 
Oh, and did I mention...they drank tea.  Ok, it wasn't tea, it was various juices and lemonade, but they drank from tea cups.  My Aunt Janis gave us her beautiful collection of tea cups years ago, and it was so fun to set them all out and give the girls such fun choices.
This is Beth's favorite because it says June.  You see, my Aunt Janis and Beth share a birthday in June :)
And finally, we must take a look at her nails.  Stephanie took this princess out to get her nails, toes, and hair done while we set-up the party.

Happy Birthday, Beautiful Beth!
