A Tea Party in Celebration of Lady Katherine's Birthday

It's a celebration...a Tea Party celebration in honor of Lady Katherine, whose birthday is this Sunday!

Happy Birthday, Katherine! I hope you like Cinnamon-Vanilla Tea and Cranberry scones.
:-) Since the weather here is going to be quite chilly on Sunday, I thought we would enjoy our birthday tea and scones in the family room near a nice, hot fire.

Ahhh, warm and cozy...

Come on in...I have a spot all ready for you right over here.

Pink camellia blossoms from my garden for a beautiful, birthday lady.

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday Dear Katherine, Happy Birthday to you!

Time to make a wish and blow out the cake-shaped candle!

How about a warm, wool throw to snuggle down in while you enjoy your tea by the fire.

I know Katherine would love it if you stopped by her blog, Lady Katherine Tea Parlor , and wished her a fabulous birthday! Just click HERE to say Happy Birthday!

At Saturday, April 04, 2009 , Char said...: Happy Happy Birthday to Lady Katherine. The tea and scones look great, but to be honest with you, I would rather just sit, and talk with you and Katherine by the fire. I haven't had a fire in the fireplace in years. Yours looks so inviting, thankyou and Happy Pink Saturday too, Char

Every single post you make is inspiring and full of pretties and there are many gorgeous things in your home..many...but my all time favorite is that doggie lamp! I look for it each time I visit you and one day you will walk into that room and there will be just a blank spot there because I will have wished it away right into my own little home! :) Have a wonderful weekend, Susan.
Love and smiles~

I tore loose my whole right side of mesh and Doc said hospital, I said Tea Party! lol I been asleep for days around the clock. I have so enjoyed visiting the Tea Parties today, my spirit is lifted. All the comments on every blog have filled me with Tears of Joy! Thank you so much for having me to Tea on my special day. The pink camellia are a lovely touch of Spring sitting by the fire! I am so touched by such wonderful people here in blogland. Thank You for taking the time to do this for me. Lady K
