Back from visiting family!

The family visiting was wonderful!

We were in Atlanta Georgia area last week...

I hope to blog more about it... 

first, about the chocolates, like the ones above...

I did not buy any! My sister-in-law bought one for her

sister but it melted in the heat

(it was a few hours before she would see that sister

and it was a really hot day)...

I did buy some homemade fudge there and some cute

"carrots" ala Peter Rabbit chocolates (see picture below) for some of my nieces and nephews.

It was really fun visiting with them... 

This morning we had a special tea ... they set it up like you see above

and they all dressed up for it (I did too!)

and they had so much fun!

We talked all about tea, them visiting NYC and me one day,

about how it's ok to spill at a tea party (I spill all the time

when I pour tea or milk for tea + the youngest tea drinker there was only 6...)

and towards the end they thought it would be funny to pour the rest of the sugar

from the sugar bowl into the middle kid's cup and the 2 girls got the giggles

and the 6 year old boy more loud... it was really cute... somehow

Auntie Elizabeth had the sugar bowl for the rest of the time :) 

it was a really special time and we had such a good week together...

I hope to blog more about it later on...

May God have mercy on us all!
