Afternoon Tea at The Midand Hotel...

... on the feast of St Lucia.  We didn't manage any of my at home activities associated with the feast but we did manage a celebration of sorts!  I'd mentioned a visit to this place earlier in the month and this treat was Sara's Christmas gift to the family.  After all the adults in the family have no real need of anything... apart from health and that you cannot buy, LOL!  The littles in the family have just the right amount of stuff and so this seemed a great idea for some family time.

We wore our smartest... some of us donned  twinkly party dresses and sparkly earrings, mum and dad attempted to raise a smile and littlest man had to be coerced into wearing smart trousers and the whole experience was akin to teeth pulling.  For sure there is NO chance of me earning a halo anytime soon!

Here are our pictures from the visit:
