To drink a cup of tea is a delight. Even more delightful is sharing tea with friends--girl friends! As the only girl in my family, I treasure tea time with other girls (should I say ladies?). Okay--girls young and older! So when one of my friends hosted a Christmas Tea, I brought my camera along to capture the afternoon.
A Christmas Tea means decorations on the table
Tea pot, and goodies to share
Each lady brought her own tea cup to use; what fun to see all the different kinds!
The ladies took turns sharing the story behind their tea cups. Every tea cup has a story, from thrift store find, to an heirloom from a beloved grandmother.
Amid laughter and merriment, we partook of treats and fellowship.
The lone boy at the party!
Lori prepared a short devotional for us.
She even made gingerbread men, with the devotional attached, for each of us! I took mine home, but never got a chance to put the buttons or face on. Hungry boys appeared in the kitchen upon my arrival, and the gingerbread man did not escape. :)
How sweet is the fellowship of my sisters in Christ!
Treasuring life's moments,
Christine

Oh it sounds like such a sweet time, and the pictures are great.
ReplyDeleteI went to a woman's tea in November this year, I've always liked them. I've been on a hot chocolate crave, but I think it would be better to start drinking more tea again. :)
Merry Christmas. :)
