Finally the key...To my chastity belt :P
The party was as wonderful as I'd hoped; I'd been planning to have a tea party for ages. I had a smaller and crappier version for my 19th in one of the local parks here, but this was just perfect. Unfortunatly, quite a few people couldn't make it. However, the most important people in my life came and I just wanted to thank you guys very much for making it such a special day for me! Love you all!
As to my readers that may not necessarily be in my close circle of friends over here in Aus, I hope you enjoyed the post - it took forever to find all those photos and I'm sure it also took forever to load the page :P
Thanks for reading my lovelies!
