A Spot of Tea

The week before Christmas my cousin, Martha, called and invited me, Ava, and my mom to have tea at Jekyll Island Inn & Club. As soon as I heard it, I knew Ava would enjoy it! I mean a real life tea party? We may never go back to the pretend tea we have around the house! ha! Before we left, she was wearing her veil and carrying a bouquet around the house- I guess she was preparing for a wedding we had after Christmas...





Mom, Martha, and Ava



The sweet girl who was our server brought a high chair for Ava's doll- which made the whole experience even better in Ava's mind!



We had some delicious blueberry scones, which I didn't take a picture of... and some tea sandwiches and miniature desserts. Everything was delicious and the tea was great. Ava loved the sugar swirl stick :) She even drank her own cup of tea- just like the big girls!



After a nice time of tea we walked around (followed a bride taking pictures). It is such a nice place, we even saw a beautiful sunset.





While I was taking pictures, Ava walked over and took a break on one of the big oak tree limbs that hangs low to the ground. I think she has been here before :)





We had such a nice time, Ava and I both want to make a trip back, soon! Thanks to Martha for a nice evening, Ava even got to break in the DVD player in her knew Tahoe :) On the way home, despite my best efforts, Ava fell asleep pretty quick- a sure sign she had a lot of fun! :)
