Today we had Zoe's birthday tutu-tea party with her friends Emily and Ana... Tyler also came, as well as Finn. It started out as a Fairy party, but because she'd only wear her ballet stuff, I decided to have everyone else wear the same. The party went as I expected.. I set up nice dishes and crystal and silver for all the stuff.. served Fruit kabobs (made from grapes, marshmellow, one strawberry, and heart shaped apples on the top like wands), cream cheese and jelly sandwiches, pink rice crispie treats, and pinkalicious cupcakes (mini and large) topped with Jelly Bellies. The kids got anxious to play everywhere but had to wait it out a little to let Finn sleep.. Finally when he woke, they ran around, found the table and wanted Tea. To get the tea ready, I had them pretend to have tea at the mini trampoline with a tea set (Erica, Emily's mom was a big help here).. then they got up for tea.. all of them had two cubes of sugar and milk in their decaf raspberry white tea.. ate the tops of the cup-cakes (just the frosting and candy please) and ate the fruit. No one touched the rice crispies ;) They ate fast and were off to play again. The three girls got on fabulously well.. played well together.. switching rooms at a whim. At some point Zoe and Emily striped down, took turns pee-ing, and then got into new ballet costumes (Zoe shared hers)... After Ana left, Zoe and Emily where stuck together (literally).. hugging and tackling.. they get along so well.. true friendship... and giggled themselves into a dither. It was the right size of party.. went fast, I didn't do any of the games or activities I planned (and it was a rainy day so we were inside the whole time), but I know they loved every minute of it.. Zoe fell asleep with no stories tonight.
Pics up soon.
