Fairy Tea Party

Yesterday, we took advantage of Maddie being at Grandma & Grandpa's to allow Cate and I a special trip out to a Fairy Tea Party. The party took place at the Children's Garden in Robert F. Leggett Park (corner of Main & Clegg). It's an enchanting little community run garden that was just perfect for the event and made the perfect setting for me to try out my new "nifty fifty" lens that I bought for $40 off Kijiji. We made delicious oatmeal cranberry coconut cookies to share, and even got to bring a few home for the rest of the family.
