Tuesday night was our annual PPEA Ladies Tea. It was such a sweet time of refreshment and laughter! Each lady brought a treat to share and the room was decorated in fall colors and decorations.

Many of us had agreed to be table hostesses. Our job was to keep our table's tea pots full of  hot water and to keep the conversations flowing. We had a list of questions at our disposal to help us to keep everyone involved in the conversation. My table and I hear many others didn't even need the questions. The conversations just flowed natrually. I guess you get a bunch of women together and we're GOING to talk!! LOL

The  Lord graciously seated 2 moms at my table who have Asperger children! How cool is that??? Like a friend said to me, "The organizers didn't have a seating plan but God did!!"

My sweet new friend and fellow Aspie mom, Lori. Doreen is sitting next to her on the left.

Here are Cathy and Doreen. It was such a pleasure to visit with them during the tea!

On the other side of the table were Tammy and her sister. Tammy is the other Aspie mom who was at my table.

These two ladies did such a wonderful job of welcoming everyone and getting them to a seat!

Sorry this pic turned out so dark, but sweet Cindy did a fabulous job emceeing the event.

While we ate our goodies, we were entertained by a hilarious skit! Neoka emceed a hysterical Homeschool Mom's Pagent! Each of the contestants represented a different personality of homeschool moms. We have left to right, Mrs. Stressed Out Homeschool Mom, Mrs. Social Butterfly Homeschool Mom, Mrs. Hurry Up Homeschool Mom, Mrs. Information Please Homeschool Mom, Mrs. Messy Homeschool Mom, Mrs. Traditional Homeschool Mom, Mrs. Homeschool Moment Homeschool Mom, Mrs. Disorganized Homeschool Mom, and Mrs. Organized Homeschool Mom. At the end of the pagent we decided that the true winners are not the moms as much as our kids!!

Weren't the place settings lovely?? My dear friend and accountability partner Michele made the cookies and pumpkin dip which were on each table!

And this is Michele and Laura.

On the right is another dear friend Patty. I'm going to have to find out the other sweet ladie's name. Her daughter is in Keepers with Maiden and I still don't know her name! For shame, Dee!!

This is Susan, Sunshine and Tina.
