This morning, Jenny, g'ma, and I put together a tea party. We invited g'ma's friend Helen (far right) to come over at 10:30am. I made the scones (apricot and pecan -- yummy!)...
...and Jenny made the yummy little sandwiches that every tea party needs: thinly sliced apples and a brown sugar/cream cheese mix on cinnamon bread. 
Needless to say, we stuffed ourselves! Jenny did a great job pouring the tea.
We all got to choose which plate/teacup combo we wanted. All of the china we used was painted by my dear grandmother who claims that "anyone can china-paint." I try almost every time I visit and I am proof that that statement is not true. :)
Many years ago, when Jenny and I were little, we decided to have a tea party in g'ma's room, very similar to the one we had this morning. But for our tea party back in the day, we wore g'ma's house coats and robes... I think even my older brother put one on to fit in! Ha! Such good times.
What other fun memories do you have with your grandmother?

Now that is so awesome. All of my grandparents have passed away. It breaks my heart that they were never able to meet Cody or Carley. What a neat and special memory with your grandma!
I need your scones recipe!
We will have to have a tea party together some time.
Just kidding. I enjoyed playing ping pong and talking sports & politics with my grandpa & hanging out outside in their back yard with my grandma.
