Every year, I throw the girls a Back to School Tea Party after their first day of school...we always have fun snacking and talking about their new classes and teachers, it has become sort of a tradition around here...
While they are at school, I bake a few goodies and set up the table in our Living Room...
We usally have cupcakes, crackers, cheese and fruit- nothing fancy- but I love to decorate the table with colorful school supplies and flowers...
For "tea" we serve lemonade in our tea pot.
This year, for their gifts I purchased each girl a school spirit t-shirt
and each girl got a homemade "soup can vase" of pretty flowers...
A fun time was had by all and we look forward to a great new year at school!
















How sweet! These are memories that your daughters will treasure forever!

You are building such wonderful memories for your children and teaching them the beauty of calmness as you share time with them upon their return from school, so important!!!
