It all began very early last Friday morning. I cleaned house until 2 pm and Michael worked in the yard. We had a wine tasting party to get the house ready for and had twenty four people show up for it on Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately, I didn't get around to taking pictures during the party and feel bad about that. I think once I got into the wine tasting, I was too busy socializing and enjoying visiting our family and friends that I forgot all about my camera. Next time I promise to get some pictures during the party. I'm thinking of making this wine tasting an annual event but I'm just not sure about which time of year is best. Summer or Fall? We had gorgeous weather for the wine party this time but the next day, the day of our tea party, was a little blustery and cool. As for summer, it can be too, too hot or too, too windy. You never know what the weather will bring around our town.
I decorated my clothesline to hide it because it was too much of a hassle to take it down, plus, it provided some much needed shade over by the wine tasting table.
On Sunday my friend, Jan, and I drove down to my Auntie Yvonne's house to take her to a tea party at
Tyme For Tea & Co. in Fremont. Our other good friend, Sharyn, was supposed to go with us but her husband, Greg, ended up getting hospitalized on Saturday night. So sorry!!
We got there early enough to go antiquing in the Niles district which is where the tea house is located and all three of us found plenty of little treasures to purchase and take home.
