It was in the afternoon, and Felicity and Elizabeth decided that since it was such a beautiful day that they should have their tea outside! The girls set everything out on the table, from their fancy tea cups and saucers to the yummy treats!
"Don't you just LOVE the sunshine today Felicity?" Elizabeth asked starting up a conversation.
"I sure do!" Felicity said as she got up from her chair and lightly picked up the tea pot.
"Miss Elizabeth Cole, would you like some tea?" Felicity asked, just like how Miss Manderly taught them to do.
"Yes please!" Elizabeth answered.
"Would you like some sugar?" Felicity asked politely.
"One lump, thank you Felicity."
Elizabeth quickly stirred the sugar lump into her tea, before getting up to serve tea to Felicity too. :)
"Miss Felicity Merriman, would you like some tea?"
Before Felicity answered she gently picked up her tea cup and her spoon, and...
said, "No thank you Miss Elizabeth."
"What?! But, Felicity the war has been over for a few years, it's okay to drink tea now." Elizabeth said in a state of shock. She couldn't imagine why her friend wouldn't want to drink the tea!
"I'm sorry Elizabeth," Felicity answered, "I'm just not thirsty, but those cakes look good!"
Elizabeth laughed, while Felicity grabbed one of the dainty cakes. "I guess I should never be surprised with you Felicity Merriman." Elizabeth said and Felicity laughed.
As Elizabeth sipped her tea and Felicity munched on her cake they both had a wonderful afternoon tea together, and Felicity said she would definitely drink the tea next time! :)

Beautiful, you have such lovely dolls and take beautiful pictures. You never cease to amaze, Liz. :) I agree with Felicity, the cakes do look delicious!

Haha! I love the "The war has been over for years" line! Yeah...it's 2011! :P

Liz, I sure enjoyed the girls afternoon tea party. I would love to own Felicity's tea gown, it's so pretty. I like Elizabeth's but I think I prefer her green summer gown like on my avatar pic, cause it comes with a hat like Felicity's tea hat. Great job on the photostory, I have been waiting for another one of your stories and surprise I got one. Thank you. Greatly enjoyed it.

Hi Girls! Thank you for the sweet comments, they mean so much to me! I'm glad you all enjoyed the photostory! :)
Carly-I totally recommend Addy! She has such gorgeous brown eyes and I love her! At first her hair can be a bit hard, but it's easy to brush with a doll hair pick. It's fun to style too!
Hannah-The little cakes are actually erasers! They come in sets and I bought them at Michael's Craft Store. You can get them other places too.
Sasha-That's so cool you have the Japanese erasers too! They make perfect doll food!
Sammyboe-The camera I have is a Canon Powershot SX130 IS. I bought it last month, because the other camera I had (the old model of this camera the SX120 IS) accidentally broke from being dropped. This is a great camera and I really recommend it! You can find it on the Best Buy website here...

I hope you all have a wonderful day! :)

LOL, funny, Liz! Lissie looks lovely in her Tea Lesson Gown! I have that dress, and when I put it on Emily with substitute hat and shoes, (I don't have the hat or shoes that came with it) she looks like Felicity! I sometimes accidentally call her Felicity! :D LOL!

Hi Girls! Thank you so much for the comments! :)
Carly-That would be awesome if you got Addy! She is such a cute doll! That's so cool you're home-schooled too! When do you get out for Summer? :)
Alexa-That's great you have the erasers too! They all are adorable! I got the table and chairs at Target, it's by the doll brand Our Generation. I did a post about getting the table and chairs a few years ago here...

The teapot came with the table and chairs set too, a long with some teacups. The teacups I showed in this photostory though, I got from yardsales! I did a post about getting the teacups here...
