My Birthday


On April 24th I had a tea party for my birthday. I invited eleven girls close to my age to have tea and to make hats for young children to donate to the Stanford Children's Hospital. We started out by either crocheting or knitting the hats. After about an hour we had tea, sandwiches, cake, ice cream and scones. We then went outside and I opened the presents. All of the gifts were very special and reflected the givers. The gifts included a bird feeder, Michael's gift card, a cute drawing of a girl, a handmade skirt and a tea cup.After that we worked on the hats for another hour, during which everyone made a lot of progress. Two people each finished a whole hat during the party, one hat was a light brown beanie and the other a pink and purple beanie. All the other hats which were started looked beautiful. I would include pictures from the party, but the camera broke before I uploaded the pictures. One of my friends took pictures during the party, so hopefully I will be able to post them later.
