La-Tea-Dah

So my brother's wedding is coming up VERY quickly. my whole family wishes they would just wait a year! but they're set on doing it August 6th. I am the MAID OF HONOR (meant to be said in a loud announcers voice). im happy to be. I got my dress and thats gorgeous but i still need to find shoes and accessories! yikes! a good excuse to go to the mall though....haha so i dont mind. Anyhoo, my mom and i are throwing a wedding shower, we figured we had to. Its not a traditional wedding (its in highland park), but we should do something nice anyway. So like 3 weeks before the wedding we are planning a flippin wedding shower haha. yeah, short notice much?

so my mom thought of this place called "la-tea-dah". its like a tea parlor...ya know...where they serve...tea. i personally hate tea but she wanted to go try it out today before we set the date on going there in 2 weeks.  whatevs. so we go there and its in this old victorian style house ( which i love!!) and its all done up like all little girls have their rooms when they're younger. pink rooms, blue rooms, green rooms. little tea tables set up everywhere. with tea cups and saucers and little teapots...i felt like i was 6 years old again having a tea party with my plastic teaset...but no, this was the real deal. the best part of the whole "tea" experience was that you can dress up too!!! ugghhh it was so awesome! they have a crazy variety of hats that you can wear: pink hats with purple feathers, top hats, hats with veils, bowler hats, hats that reminded me of the movie My Fair Lady when they take her to the races. Not only hats but they had BOAS  too! ya know, those feathery, fluffy, things you drape around your neck and MUST pretend your a famous movie star with? i made my mom wear one haha hers was white, with silver in it and mine was bright fushia. haha we probably looks crazy as all hell, but it was real fun. I felt like Alice in Wonderland. Im looking forward to the wedding shower there. This time im wearing a hat!
