InstaFriday-Impromptu Tea Party

As an incentive to get my girls to help clean up the toy room, I suggested that we do a tea party for lunch.  The tea party would be under the canopy from Audrey's 4th Birthday Party and would be in the toy room, hence the need to clean it.  Wow. Did it work!  Audrey helped the entire time and Tessa occasionally helped.  Not having been food shopping this week yet we served up what we had and here is the menu:


Hot dog horderves (on a tooth pick of course). 


Skewers of cheddar and string cheese. 


Refreshing watermelon cubes.


Blueberry and Clementine skewers.


The main course consisted of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches cut with a square cookie cutter. 


Cream Puffs for dessert. 


I served each "course" to them on a tray and then we chatted about our prince's and our horses and our animal friends.  


These are the felt flowers that adorn the top of the canopy.
