Tea party photos!

A great big thank you to everyone who came to the tea party. The girls were so well behaved and just delightful to have over. We snacked on mini PB&J sandwiches, Cheez-its, grapes, and drank pink lemonade from real tea cups. They each got to take home some girly supplies like rings, necklaces, and feather boas. The girls also made headbands with ribbons tied around them but I didn't get any pictures of these. I think they had a good time making crafts and snacking but most of all they just enjoyed each others company and playing with toys!

Enjoy the photos below.
Is it time for them to get here yet?!?!
All the lovely ladies (except for one who came a little later)

Candy necklace maker
Everyone made candy necklaces, although not all of them made it home (wink, wink)

We made hand stamped butterfly cards

The happy party hostess, Ella

We made tissue paper flowers (long time blog readers might remember these from this fall's post. Click here)

Playing with all the dolls

Ella's bed tent was a popular place to be!

Cuppy-cakes!

Gotta love a little cuppy-cake snack!

Just because everyone left doesn't mean that it's time to stop crafting according to Ella!

My initial thought was "ugh!" but from looking at the pix, it's much more sedate than all the boys I've had over. I pictured squealing and giggling (I can handle the giggling), but these look like a nice little party. Wonder if Sam would consider a tea party for his next birthday rather than water guns?

I'm not even kidding when I say that all the girls were so well behaved. There were no meltdowns, no tears, no drama--it was awesome. I'd totally do it again despite the squealing and giggling that took place upstairs.
