Very cute! Getting together with friends as we get older feels like a treat, indeed, as the occasions seem infrequent (to me at least) during our busy lives.
The animal statuettes are cute! Which animal represents you?

what a delightful round of friends and a great quote you‘ve found to describe the joy and happiness. you‘re a marvel beth; always something special and uplifting. i just wonder what size is this group of animal friends around their table? is it for kids or a puppet house? if i could have that as my dining set, i‘d be delighted (HH a bit less i suppose…)
