Kate turned 6 on May 3rd, and at her request we hosted a Garden Fairy Tea Party for her fairy and elf friends! It was a gorgeous spring day for taking tea outdoors!
|
The kids went on a treasure hunt to locate items to take home and create their own fairy houses like this one. |
|
Aunt Sherrill and Uncle Casey did face painting. |
|
Grandpa made bow and arrow sets for our handsome elves. |
|
I made flower wreaths for all the fairies. |
|
Before the tea party, we had a short discussion on etiquette. We talked about how good manners help show that you are thinking of others and not just yourself. The kids were a little in awe of using real china and silver, and I think this helped them be on their best manners! It was really something to watch 5 and 6 year olds having a very civilized tea party. |

Wonderful friends! |
So thankful to family and friends for helping make Kate's birthday so special!
