Granny's Goombata

This past weekend we had the first Granny's Goombata of 2008. It was at Shawnie's house and we had a tea party. Shawnie set a beautiful table and we each had our own tea pot. Drake (8 yrs old) dressed up in a suit and served us. He was FANTASTIC and he made the day more special. We had a GREAT time! Dori couldn't make it this time but will be sure to be at our next one!




Drake lead us into the dining room one at a time, pulled the chair out for us and sat us at our seat.






He then put the napkins on our laps.








He poured our water and brought around the tea for us to choose what we wanted.







We had quiche, chicken satay, egg rolls, cucumber sandwiches, chocolate covered strawberries and bite sized cheesecakes. It was YUMMY!

It was really fun. We all enjoyed ourselves. I love Granny's Goombata. It's so nice to get all of the women together once a month to share stories and conversation with one another. I am glad we live close enough to do this (except for Hannah and Christy whom we miss TERRIBLY) I love all of the women in my family so much. Each one is different and each one brings a unique spirit to our family. I truly am blessed to be surrounded by so many wonderful women.
