Their "other" grandmother, who lives in same town as the children, gave a Tea Party themed birthday party for oldest ggd few years ago. I WANT to do a Tea Party too, SO bad, but just do not want to steal any of her 'thunder."
I do order Upton teas, have dozens of teas on hand, even make lace, etc. Have given teas for "big" people here, but not for the children. I did not want to encroach on the other grandmother's treats in any way. Do you think since it has been a few years it would be OK?
FYI, send their mother (Shannon) Upton's "River Shannon" Irish Breakfast Tea (my fav!) at the holidays (amongst others). Upton actual prints a gift recipient's name on the label of each selection, for free, if you request this...so it is personalized, kinda special!
