CELEBRATING A BIRTHDAY AND LOOKING AT TEA CUPS!




Hello ladies and welcome to Tea Cup Tuesday No. 284.  Had a wonderful week, two in a row, yeah!  My baby girl had a birthday and we celebrated as a family on Sunday.  I love this picture of her in a super hero outfit, she is so much like that.  It seems like she is always doing 10 things at once,  always doing everything with Godly grace. Happy Birthday Vanessa!


I am still having trouble with the iCloud.  Classes are this week, so no new cups again this week.  So sorry, I picked cups I can find.  This first one is made in Austria.  It is so delicate and pretty.  Love the pale pink colors. 



The next cup is a Stanley.  Love the huge rose design. 




This last cup is a Foley.  It is just stunning.  Pictures do not do it justice.   I love cups with designs that cover the inside of the tea cup.  




 Having a big party in my garden this weekend.  I am so excited.   I just have to be sure to behave myself and not over do.  Here are some almost current pictures of my grandchildren.  All current ones are lost in the iCloud, whatever that is.  



Had so much fun visiting your wonderful homes last week. Looking forward to visiting again.  Here are some of the parties I plan to attend this week. Hugs, Martha

  2. Your teacups are really lovely, Martha. I share mine over again all the time because I am trying not to buy any more since we will be down-sizing soon. Happy Birthday to your daughter! I know what you mean about the iCloud. My son wanted to put all my pictures in the iCloud and I said 'No' because I don't have a clue how to work it. I suppose like everything else on this new computer, I will learn how and so will you. Have fun at your party and be careful not to overdo!

    Blessings,
    Sandi

  3. Hi Martha...hope the classes go well...I am taking some next week so I can use my iPad...a bit daunting! Lovely teacups, and love the photo of your "suoerhero" birthday girl! It's my turn for some back probs from a car accident 6 years ago which occasionally shows up again. Thanks for hosting and linking to Tuesday Cuppa Tea!

  8. Hello Martha, lovely photos of the family and I have to tell you that my baby is also Vanessa - a great name :) The Stanley is a lovely tea cup, very decadent with those big roses on it.
    I'm glad you've had a good week, here's to another great one or two coming up. Blessings,

  9. Hi Dear Martha,
    I do love your Stanley teacup and the Foley. Such gorgeous roses. Your daughter Vanessa is beautiful and the grand children look so happy. I hope that you have a wonderful garden party. We have had a terrible storm with trees down and power outages. So there will be no outdoor tea parties for me this week unless the weather cooperates. Don't overdo it and take care of yourself.
    Blessings! Karen

  14. Martha: Your cups are lovely as usual. Sounds like a wonderful party in the garden. I had a crisis moment and accidentally deleted your comment. Fingers do funny things sometimes! If you want to redo it you can. (Your link is ok though)

  15. Oh wow, Martha, I agree! The Stanley and the Foley cups are very beautiful!
    Thanks so much for stopping by "Let's Talk Vintage!" I'm going to try and link up with your cup and saucer party... I am waiting in a dance studio for my daughter to finish her class... let's hope I can figure out how to use this tablet computer!

  16. Hi Martha! Well, those huge roses on the Stanley cup are my favorite--but your daughter outshines them all. A lovely super-lady, to be sure. But . . . aren't ALL our daughters our personal super-heroines?? I love mine muchly, too.
    I'm joining a Teacup Exchange and sharing same with you today--so excited!
    Joy!
