time for tea.....

There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.


a few weeks ago, this scripture came to
mind as I was thinking about Hosannas birthday! "Time" there is a time for everything. A time to die, a time to
mourn, a time to dance and celebrate. So with that in mind, it's time to celebrate with a tea party!!

I have always had a table for all the desserts but wanted to do something different and vintage looking! I found a photo of a similar shelf on pinterest and ask terry of he could build it and he and josh came through for me!!! I love it!! Course it doesn't go with anything in our house so I will use it for parties and such and I guess Hosanna will have a new piece of furniture for her playhouse!!!

Course cupcakes, sugar cookies are a must! They are just so "happy!!" cake pops and a BIG cake had to be squeezed in as well!!! I love the light, soft pinks for the tea party!! So sweet!!!

All of the white curtain things are the Dollar Tree plastic table cloths!!!! Yay for cheap!! The bunny and stuffed bears were Joel's!

It was a special day for Hosanna!!! She is so sweet to tell me thank you many times for all the work!! I love making it special for her and remembering Joel!!

Thank you for praying for us today!!

Lots of photos!!!!!
