Little Tea Party

We are having fun with festive Sunday "tea parties" using Faith's old sets. This weekend we decided to break out the Christmas set and the "Ballerina" cookies Faith and I bought on our last Ikea visit (the day before). One of the best parts? How these spontaneous teatimes draw in the teenagers too. Maybe it will become a Sunday tradition!

I just love those cookies from Ikea, every time I go I come back home with 3 or 4 packets! lol...

love tea parties! Perfect moment to get the grandparents or great grandparents to be able to interact with the wee ones too.

What a sweet little activity! And maybe now I won't feel so guilty every time I fall in love with another tea set! Now I can buy them in hopes of current and future tea parties!

Now that is a great tradition. I loved having spur of the moment tea parties this past summer.
