I can't help it. Whenever my kids come to me and ask if they can have a tea party I cave. Tea parties are the best. Especially after working hard all morning pulling weeds with dad. Especially when mom actually has snack food in the house. Especially when you get to use your play dishes. Especially when the littlest brother no longer dumps his cup of tea on the floor. Especially when it is 107 degrees outside and mom has run out of chores and fun stuff to do. Yeah tea parties are fun.On the tea party menu:
Pretzels
Oreos
Popcorn
Fruit Snacks
Chips
Apples
Water
Looks like I was cleaning out the pantry that day. Phew...at least I snuck something good for them in there, but knowing me I probably salted the apples first. And it had to be water that day because they wanted to have it back in Alexia's room.
Now lets just talk about that lunchroom tray there. I found it about five years back at TJ Maxx. It seems we don't use those in our schools anymore. It's too hard to have to wash the dishes now for the lunch ladies in our school. Now we pay for the styrofoam tray too. School lunch costs $2 in these parts. That's crazy. And our lunch ladies don't cook anymore - they just heat up. I'm not disgruntled at all...can you tell? Wow I'm off on a tangent. Anywho...
We love our tea parties - yes we do.

Looks like fun wish we were there to play too. I totally agree about the lunch situation these days, Not like it used to be!!
My kids love tea parties too! Sorry I had to cancel our tea party tomorrow! We will have one though-I promise!

I miss having tea parties. That looks like so much. Next time I"m around I want to have a tea party. Your kids are too cute!
Cute, we had a tea party last week. Half the girls from neighborhood were here. They had a blast. I need to give in to that more often. Same with letting them have a lemonaid stand.
That's fun good old tea parties. I miss you guys tons.
I love it! Parkers face just makes me want to squeeze my computer! I love that kid! Lexi & Elijah too!
So how funny is it that Brad, when he saw this post, commented on how yummy the food looked! It was 11:00 at night and I think he had the munchies!
