They've been busy preparing for all the July 4th festivities
and are eager to relax with a cup of tea on the porch.
They've set the tea table with Richard Ginori China
and their favorite red polka dot tea service.
Look at the star spangled
details of this beautiful china.

It's very hot here this summer,
but they've picked a shady spot on the front porch.
Shall we join them?
All ready for the neighborhood 4th of July Parade,
Mary Kate has on her special star spangled dress.
She is very patriotic and most proud to be an American.
Lucy's mom made her dress
with both stars and stripes.

Looks like these proud little

You've probably noticed (or maybe you haven't) that I haven't been blogging as much lately. Other things seem to be getting in the way. Anyway, thanks for stopping by.

ReplyDeleteRED OR YELLOW?
If you have a penchant for red,
Then scarlet will go to your head;
But if it is gold
You’d rather behold,
Then plant yellow roses instead.

ReplyDeleteSoooooo adorable and every little detail is perfect! I love those little star plates, too!!!!! AWESOME!@!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIs it any cooler there/have you gotten any rain yet in Texas? I know ya'll have had a hard time with the drought! I can't imagine cancelling 4th fireworks because of a drought....must be super dry! I hope things cool down/ya'll get some rain soon!!!
Hugs/blessings,
Lana
God finds a new way to humble me every single day....I just babbled on about Texas and you're not from Texas, are you???? It's Marlis in Texas with the bad drought.......and my mind just mixed the blog world up....I would blame the only 3 hours of sleep I've gotten (it's 6 something in the morning here and I've been up for hours) but I'm always kind of silly and daft ;)
ReplyDeleteSO SORRY!
Hugs/blessings,
Your Daft Friend Lana
What an adorable tea party! The setting looks so sweet on your porch! Hope your 4th was wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Hi Sarah, I just love your little table with Mary Kate and Lucy! Their outfits are wonderful and perfect for the 4th and that star spangled china is gorgeous! The girls should eat those goodies quickly before they melt! Of course I had to go se the table transformation and I am so impressed! I love children's furniture and kids are always so delighted to find thing sin their own size! What did you decide about the rooster details? Paint or not? This was such a fun post--I really enjoyed it. Linda
ReplyDeleteOh how precious! I can't wait to show this post to my sweet Caroline on her next visit. She'll have me dragging her wicker table & chairs up from the sewing room & out onto the porch in no time, including her 5 favorite dolls.
ReplyDeleteThat china is totally awesome! I just love stars on anything. I'm about to post a Friendship Star quilt that I made a long time ago. It is very patriotic, too.
Hugs to you & your hubby! Wish I could send you some of our cooling rain.
fondly,
Rett
p.s. That feathered star quilt under Uncle Sam is awesome, too as are ALL your wonderful needlepoint projects. I was drooling as I viewed each one.
BRAVO!!

Hi Sarah,
ReplyDeleteThis vignette is adorable! I believe it's the cutest thing I've seen for the Fourth of July. Those dolls are real treasures, the china is beautiful, and I love the porch furniture and the planter overflowing with sweet potato vine and pretty flowers. Thanks for sharing and Happy Seasonal Sunday.

Hi Sarah! Such cuties! I love the little table set..precious! I am sorry to be so absent from blogland...busy with babies! The pewter flatware you asked about is Gorham Octette and was my wedding flatware...instead of silver...many moons ago! I am not sure if it is still available. Thanks for entering the giveaway! Good luck, my dear friend! Happy week!...hugs...Debbie
ReplyDeleteHow fun Sarah. What cuties they are. I love their china. Thanks for linking this up to Home Sweet Home!
