For Judy's 50th Birthday a group of us met at Abbey's Tearoom. The weather was beautiful and there was time for a visit before the tea party started.

I had Judy open my gift to her - a beautiful birthday hat - before the festivities began so we could all enjoy watching her in her finery...

Abbey, the proprietress of the Tearoom explained to all of us how it works...

Everyone listened attentively while the tea choices were offered, and then we played a brief game of "Pass the Hat"

Here's Julie looking perky...

...and Sam, showing off her eye shadow...

...and Ann, looking fetching...

...and Mom, posing gracefully....

..and Donna looking sweet....

...and Jessie looking glamorous...

...and me, looking somewhat like Minnie Pearl...

We feasted (daintily of course) and drank many pots of fabulous teas...

...and a gracious and gentile time was had by all....

Take me home, please
