Tea Parties are Fun!

Amy opted for a party this year instead of getting spending money for her birthday.  I was so happy that she wanted a tea party!  I love going to a beautiful tea service with friends!

 I got so caught up serving and preparing the food that I forgot to take pictures, but they started with  cucumber sandwiches and prosciutto rolls.  Second course was scones with cream and jam and custard tarts.  For dessert there were chocolate strawberries, lemon cookies, strawberry cupcakes and cupcake chocolates with berry herbal tea.  Amy said the food was her favorite part!  Yay! 
 After tea we took pictures with some props...
 played musical chairs...
 and the telephone game.  What is a tea party without some gossip?  They also tried to throw tea bags into the top of the tea pot and played a game like Pictionary by making pictures in tea leaves for their team to guess.
 Happy 11th Birthday, Amy!

  1. DARLING! All of it. I love the "hat" toppers for everyone. I'm sure it was a party that all of the pretty girls will talk about for a very long time. Happy Birthday, Miss Amy! (you're such a good mom, Brook) xxoo
