"a teddy bear picnic in the lilac garden"

You are cordially invited to "a teddy bear & doll dress up, hats, purses, and fancy tea" party!
Place: Sara's lilac garden
Time: April Fools Day
What to bring: favorite cookies, cakes, and other sweet things
Printed and sealed, these dainty little cards went out in the early spring and before she knew it, a group of friends dropped by to say they were delighted to be there.
Sara was thinking of Alice in her adventures and she asked aunt Cecilia to let out her rabbit. Her friends would surely enjoy petting the furry creature.
A small lemon tree in the nearby gated garden, was blossoming! After taking a long horse ride, Lily dropped by. She arrived with her hat and gloves on.
Under the lilac tree, a light spring breeze was cooling the spring air and Aunt Cecilia went to her room to read. Amongst the wild lilac bushes and trees in the whole row, Sara and her friends set up table and chairs. The scent of lilac blooms stirred a familiar feeling in her and she wished her mama had come back home.
The she was staring in her direction, Rebecca, Sara's mama. She ran to hug her little darling and brought plenty of beautifully wrapped Swiss Chocolates.
Mama picked out a huge doll with a beautiful red flamenco dress and long blonde curling hair for Sara. Her name was Rita.
Rita was soon invited to tea with friends and that afternoon passed rapidly. That evening, mama climbed up to Sara's bed and kissed her cheeks.
Will you stay?
Yes, I'll be here for a while...
