Mother Daughter Tea-less Tea Party

Amazing girls all come from amazing moms and my girls and their moms are beyond amazing, they are spectacular. To celebrate Mother's Day this year, we decided to throw a little tea-less tea party on my back porch. I made mini muffins and scones, chocolate dipped strawberries, cupcakes and punch. We asked sisters in our ward to donate teacups and mini tea sets to use as decoration (reassuring them they would not be used for drinking by small hands). I also found some really awesome cupcake wraps that look like tea cups so we could at least have tea cups at each place setting. When we were announcing this activity, a few of the girls asked what we were drinking since there was no tea. That gave me an idea for a little game. We played name that beverage. I had a few different sodas and juices that I poured into little cups and they had to guess what it was. For our lesson, we talked about the importance of spending quality time together and gave them some ideas of what they could do to spend time as mother and daughter.
