I told lil Sara if she was good and did not cry as we got in the car, when we got home we would have a tea party...with MUMMY'S TEA SET...the words were barely out of my mouth and she was saying her thank you's and goodbyes...
Alas she was so tired she fell asleep in the car on the way home...But the second her eyes opened after the nap she was asking for the promised tea party to begin...Let this be a warning to all you mummies...if you are going to bribe your child, be ready to follow thru with the promised treat lol.
Look at that excited little face...She is so proud to be using the big tea set...Please note the candle sticks on the table, she insisted as I was getting the tea stuff out of the china cabinet we use the candles also.
On the menu today we have:
Teddy Bear Cookies
Fruit Flavored Dora the Explorer Treats
Apple Slices
Honey Grahams
1% Milk

Sara very carefully poured her own milk...As you can see we are using my all white pieces, the teacup and saucer are Gibson "Everyday" and came from Walmart, the creamer jug (matching sugar bowl still in cabinet) Martha Stewart from Target..Tea Pot Corelle from Lowes Foods NC many moons ago...The 2 tiered server is Kmart brand and was from their Easter collection I believe.
No surprise the Dora Treats were the first to go lol...
Next to go was the Teddy Bears...It tickled me how with both treats she very carefully placed them around her cup...
I slipped in a couple of chicken nuggets since she slept thru lunch...We are so glad you could join us again today for another "on the spot" tea party...
Blessings Kelsie

Kelsie,
This is what winter days (or any days)are made for! I am applauding you! Not for just being the greatest Mama ever. .. but for sharing your bribe in photos with all of us! You certainly brought a smile to my face today, dear. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Seeing the look on a little one's face when they have a tea party is priceless.
You had healthy snacks for your tea too, I'm glad I came to visit.
Hi Kelsie,
what a cute lucky little Lady, to have a tea party with her Mom. You made everything very nice. She will remember this for a long time.
Greetings, Johanna
Kelsie, your little Sara is adorable and I love the look on her face as she samples all the goodies! You're a good Mommy who keeps her promises! Lovely little tea party; thanks for sharing with us and inviting us into your home. And speaking of home, I do love yours! I think I told you before that yours is my favourite style of house! I have entered your name twice for the Giveaway. Have a wonderful week, my friend.

Your daughter is delightful. As is your wonderful tea with her. Love the assortment of healthful goodies. Think that is one of the nicest teas I have seen. What is there about a child's smile that just lights up the world. Thank you for sharing with us.
You touch my heart with your tea time for your daughter! How sweet that she loves to have tea and you would take the time to do it so well. Good for her for insisting on candles....you have taught her well!
She is so adorable!
I love your all white dishes and tea cup and saucer. It is always good to have since they mix so well with just about any style.
