Amelia decided that for her 1st real friend party she wanted to have a tea party. Invitations were sent out. We decorated the house and made yummy food for lunch and got all dressed up in our pearls and party dresses and waited for the guests to arrive.
Two bears having there own tea party on the front porch awaited the guests.
I dressed up in a beautiful gown as the queen of the house and Amelia put on her Princess Party Dress. She couldn't wait for her friends to arrive.
BJ the Butler (daddy) took the day off of work (his birthday), dressed up in a tuxedo, welcomed the guests as they arrived, seated them at the table, served them lunch and even took pictures of the party. What a guy!!!!!
The table was decorated with tea pots, candles, pearls, etc. and each of the girls had accessories to put on (white gloves, jeweled rings, pearls, lip gloss, and hats). I talked to the girls about how we sit at the table, drink our tea (pink lemonade) with our pinkies up, eat our food with our mouths closed and talk nicely to each other using "please and thank you's". I was surprised at how well they did.
We had fruit and petit fours.........
Turkey and cheese or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in fun princess shapes, fruit kabobs and string cheese.
After lunch the girls each decorated their hats with flowers and ribbon--the fancier the better at a tea party!
Then it was time to play "Pin the Cup on the Saucer". No one got very close to a saucer but they all had fun wearing the blind fold anyway.
After the games it was time for birthday cake and singing. I made giant cupcakes with princess sparkles and each girl got to blow out there own tall candle in the cupcake. Everyone loves to blow out a candle--why not let them?
To make present time fun for everyone we played "Musical Tea Pot" to determine who's present Amelia would open. She loved each of her gifts.
After all the presents were opened the girls gave Amelia a big birthday hug. That was really sweet.
Happy Birthday Amelia! We love you!!!!
