Last weekend I had a some girlfriends over for a casual lunch. I kept it super simple and borrowed some wicker trays from my mother in law and held the party on our screen porch. It was pot luck so everyone brought a little something. I naturally went by Hamby’s for little tea sandwiches (I look for any excuse). I mixed up some Firefly sweet tea vodka and used my new Aladdin mason tumblers. It was the perfect afternoon.

The Aladdin mason jars and drink dispensers were cute and easy! Afterwards I just threw it all in my dishwasher. I’m looking forward to using these at the beach and around the pool this summer
Lilly and Fletcher couldn’t resist coming out to party for a little while, too.
Don’t worry, Lilly’s was just water.
It’s so nice to spend a Saturday afternoon with girlfriends. And it doesn’t have to be fancy, despite what pinterest and instagram tell me on a daily basis (I need to remind myself of that). Thanks to Aladdin for helping me accomplish this!

This post was brought to you by Aladdin. All opinions, as always, are my own.
I think they sell on their website? Also I know Target carries them.
Is there any way I can order one of the pink aladdin mason cups ?
[…] also happen to be a company that I already love (remember my lady lunchin’ party on my screen porch?). So now I’m stalking Aladdin’s pinterest feed for party ideas and […]

Ha right? I mean, I did go to Trader Joes for some flowers though :) But at least it was just TJ and not an expensive florist :)

Love this! What a great event!

Where can I find some of those trays? They would be so handy to have….or borrow!
those are SO cute!!!
Those tumblers are so cute (I’m a big fan of pink), and I really love your note at the end about it not having to be fancy. Instagram and Pinterest can definitely take over sometimes, and it’s good to remind myself that life is not alwaaaays picture perfect. Thanks Chassity!!
LOVE this – what a great day! Love seeing all the girls & Thanks Gray for the descent photo snap!
So fun! Looks lovely, and those tumblers are so awesome! Pretty sure I need some!!!
Your porch is perfection…those tumblers are so adorable and I love the drink dispensers too! Those will definitely come in handy for beach + pool days! Happy Friday love.
