Fall Table, October, 2018


I set this table last month but never posted it. I better post it now cause Fall will be behind us pretty soon.

 I started with a paisley printed tablecloth with earth tones
 I think it is pretty simple, using Better Homes and Garden Fall dinnerware. I love that they come in different patterns cause sometimes matchy matchy bores me ,though I like them too. After all, dishaholic me likes all kinds of dishes, lol.




 I love these ghosts hugging salt and pepper shakers.






 For tea, I used my Tracy Porter peacock tea set.
 I love it's shape and fall colors.


Thanks for stopping by, always appreciate your visits. I also appreciate all the meme hostesses that I would like to link with.

Outdoor Tea Party with Grandkids

It's been a while since I had a tea party with the grandkids who live next door. It's been a while too since I blogged. I think I have just been lazy and been goofing off too much. Anyway, they have been bugging me to have one, so I promised we will have one on Saturday when they are off school.  Saturday came and they called so early to find out what time we were having it. They must have really missed our tea parties, lol.

It is finally cooling off somewhat here in Florida so I decided to hold it outside. Reese is always excited to help me pick what tea set to use and I welcome the help very much.

We used a German Villeroy and Boch set in Twist Alea Limone pattern. I added English Whittard of Chelsea's strawberry and vanilla tea in it, Reese's choice. They loved it cause they drank it all.

My tea cups that match the Alea set are in the garage and I was too lazy to dig, instead, I used my Henriot Quimper cups and saucers, that are more easily accessible, since I store them in the dining room china cabinet. I think the colors blend nicely.

Either the cookies were too good or the kids were so hungry cause they disappeared very fast, lol!

Aren't they looking so happy? They are so precious and such good kids!
 My Reese is growing too fast!
 The boys, Brendan and Nathan, are getting bigger too.

We had a great time, I am glad I succumbed to their wishes.
Brendan was looking up cause there was a frog and a lizard on the umbrella pole. I think they were jealous and wanted to join us, lol.


I did not know, John was taking pictures of us.

Thanks for stopping by. I always appreciate your visits. Thanks to our hostesses of these memes.
