I thought I’d blog about something fun today. This weekend marked my fifteenth wedding anniversary. My husband and I began searching our brains for something to do to celebrate this event about two months ago. Going out to a restaurant didn’t seem special enough. We settled on afternoon tea. After a rather interesting Saturday spent looking at the local tea houses we found one that intrigued us. So this Saturday we invited about thirty of our friends to a Victorian high tea. At last, a chance to wear one of my new Victorian bustle dresses and there by justify some of my fabric shopping! In spite of warning the tea house that we intended to show up ‘dressed’ in vintage clothing there really is no way to prepare them for the sight of so many bustles, corsets, frock coats, canes and tops hats. But it’s fun for us to watch the kitchen staff sneaking peeks out at us when we invade.
The tea was wonderful, the staff very gracious but more importantly, our friends were there to share the moment with us and I was sitting next to my best friend…the man that puts up with me!
Hugs!

That sounds like such a fun thing to do. Did you take pictures? I would be amazing to see I think. Happy Anniversary.
I’m sure y’all were a sight to behold! What a fun Anniversary idea. It was our 16th Anniversary Sunday and we didn’t do anything so fun! *G* Happy Belated Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary, Mary.
