It started a year or so ago when Brooke Lee of Winston hosted a tea party for her sons and nieces and Brooke’s pet goats decided to crash the party. The goats drank everyone’s tea, so the gathering was dubbed the “Goat Tea Party.” Brooke’s aunts heard about the goat tea party and wanted to be a part of the action.

Now, fast-forward to April 12, 2021. Party invitations were extended to all with 15 family members attending. Carry-in food included scones, lemon custard, cookies, cupcakes, and fancy cracker things, just to name a few menu items. Participants wore fancy hats, scarves, and boas and enjoyed a wonderful tea party outdoors under flowering orchard trees.
Basil the goat hammed it up, pleased to be the center of attention. She prefers black cinnamon tea out of all the tea choices of the day. They also had a storytime of the Three Billy Goats Gruff read by Brooke (The Troll), Braden (Big Billy Goat Gruff), Slade (Middle Sized Billy Goat Gruff), and Eli (Little Billy Goat Gruff).
The last item on this springtime celebration was an egg toss — with the winner getting a fabulous pair of goat hoof socks!
