It was a beautiful day for a tea party under our oak tree. Summer arrived just in time with her warm sunshine and light breeze. Everything was just how I pictured and the girls were so happy, lost in the wonder of sweet treats, pretty tea cups, and each other’s giggles.
Look at that cute chandelier makeover that made its way to the tree!!
I took about a thousand pictures, but never felt that I had really captured the magic of what was in front of me. I’m pretty well practiced with indoor pictures, but the whole -sunlight filtering through the tree branches was a challenge. Nevertheless, lots of fun and tea party details to share. Take a closer look at all the adorable little tea time treats we made. Follow this fascinator hat tutorial to make some whimsical hats of your own!
The more I look at these pictures, the more I see the magic, actually…

I think your pictures are amazing! The color reminds my of the vintage pics hanging in my aunt’s hallway. I love the chandelier in the tree. And Olivia & Grace’s little headbands. And those scrumptious looking cakes and mini cakes.
Happy birthday Addie! You lucky little girl.
