garden tea party.

for all my senior ladies that graduated this weekend I threw a "garden tea party" this past Thursday night. It was a perfect evening to be outside on our back porch. We celebrated our year together with tea, dessert & sharing memories from the year together & their past 4 years in college.

I also made them a little take home gift with a list of "what I've learned" & "Kristen's recommended reading list" to pass on to them as they move on to their next phase of life.

aren't they beautiful!? I love these ladies!

thrift store finds: 3 candle sticks (Scott spray painted them white for me), 2 candle holders, 3 tea cups & lace tablecloth. I filled the tea cups with pink chrysanthemums.

for dessert: chocolate chip cookies, brownies, angel food cake with cool whip & strawberries, crepes with nutella & raspberries, tea & coffee.

it was a beautiful evening celebrating as the sun went down & the cool breeze came in.

Hope you have many lovely summer evening in your future with sweet friends!
