Happy Valentine's Day
On Saturday I was showered with another fabulous wedding soiree! Friends Laura Lee, Holly, Kelly and Kasey hosted a lovely Valentine's Tea for me. Everything was just exquisite and delicious! Laura Lee served jasmine tea purchased on a trip to Hong Kong a few years ago. Let me tell you how delicious and fragrant it was. We nibbled on traditional tea fare such as orange cranberry scones, petits fours, and cucumber sandwiches.
Dr. Fisher provided the entertainment at the shower as she recited love sonnets and quizzed us on biblical and secular romances. She dedicated it to Grandmother Mary Elizabeth as she was an avid Shakespeare reader. It was so delightful and fun!
Kelly arranged beautiful home grown camellias and I was in heaven! Luckily I got to take a piece of them home with me to enjoy. Also, a huge thanks to Lane who took all the great pictures at the Tea - thank you! I was so happy to celebrate my second shower and look forward to the rest!
On Sunday, our engagement announcement was published in the Tallahassee Democrat and Ocala Star Banner! And last night David took me to go see Bill Cosby speak as part of FSU's Seven Days of Opening Nights. I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's day too!
On to shower pictures...
