It was Nicola's 50th birthday celebration and Jen decided to throw a fancy garden party in her honor. Having just moved here a month ago, I didn't have a hat, so Eszter took me shopping and this is the one I ended up buying. Isn't it so much fun?
Unfortunately, because of traffic I arrived late to the party, but it was still in full swing when I got there. There were several yummy salads for lunch and a delicious array of desserts for afterwards. I wish I had a picture of the tables. It was such a pretty setting for an afternoon with a bunch of ladies from church.
All in all, there were 19 women there and almost everyone had on a fancy hat. I felt a little silly - like I was playing dress-up as a little girl - but it was so much fun! And for once, the crazy weather cooperated in this country and we had a sunny afternoon filled with good food and great company.

What a SUPER FUN idea!... doesn't this seem like a party we Americans would stereotype a party the British would have? Your hat is DARLING... super cute! I love that it has pretty blue feathers. Looks like you are doing well, getting out to new places and meeting new ladies. This is when I really appreciate the church... they help you get plugged in quickly and have people you have something in common with right away. Hooray Kim!
Kim,
I'm SO glad you're having a good time. Looks like you have lots of friends. That's WONDERFUL! Boy, I would have LOVED to have worn my feather hat WITH you!
Miss you much!!!!!!!!
