Clara's Tea Party with Texas Ballet Theater

We had the most amazing time yesterday at a Tea Party hosted by TBT! Clara is a character in the Nutcracker. This event was a mommy - daughter - grandma - aunt type of occasion. Cheyenne was my date for the day. She was so excited to meet the characters, but she was shy…you can tell by the look on her face.

The tea party was at McDavid Studio, located - downtown Ft. Worth. Originally, it was going to be at Bass Performance Hall, but due to popular demand the event was moved (across the street) to McDavid Studio to accommodate more people. The facility was gorgeous and the tea party decor was decadent. I should've taken more photos, but I was too busy eating the food. SO GOOD.

I love downtown Ft. Worth, there's so much fun to explore!

Cheyenne enjoyed it too. We were there a few weeks ago, for the parade. She remembered and said she wanted to stay in a hotel again.

While we were at the tea party, they had a meet and greet with the Nutcracker characters, they also had a professional photographer taking portraits of the girls. I can't wait to see those! All the girls received a ballet slipper and a baggie full of jewels.

There was tea, hot cocoa, amazing treats and food. Oh, and my favorite was the champagne for the grown-ups.

At each table they had a variety of nutcrackers. We had the option to purchase one. Since Dakota, didn't join us, Cheyenne wanted to get her one…so we did.

It was so cute seeing all the little girls dressed up. Cheyenne had a great time. I had a great time.
Can we go to Clara's Tea Party every weekend? And when Dakota gets bigger, we'll take her. Who wants to join us next year?

Tea Party

The Women's Ministry, at my church, has a Tea Party every year. I was asked to take photos. Most of the photography or video work, I do, that is church related, I don't charge. It's part of my service work. I enjoy it and I'm happy to do it.

A nice perk --- I didn't have to pay for my ticket. Thanks Women's Ministry! The tea and food was delicious. Next year, I'm going to take Cheyenne. It's a great mom and daughter event. Instead, Cheyenne stayed at home and had a tea party with her Daddy. Cute, right?
