TEA PARTY BIRTHDAY: Dorothy's 10th


Putting together themed birthday parties for my siblings, as some of you may know, is one of my favorite things to do at home.  Good thing I have a lot of siblings.  Before I had to come home because of COVID19, I was planning on making a surprise trip home (since my trip to Italy was no more..).

I started talking with the birthday girl a couple weeks beforehand (pretending as if Mom would be doing it for her), talking about themes, and making invitations with Canva.  Then I gathered ideas on Pinterest.

This post is over a month late (yikes!), but with the help of many hands and hearts (special thanks to Mom for the cake and food, and Kiki for the tea set, helping with making the banner, and fancy-ing up Dorothy, and the little ones for blowing the balloons!), we were able to put on a proper quarantined birthday party!  Here's a gallery of the tea party.


BIRTHDAY GIRL


She wanted a tea party but wanted still learning what teas she enjoys.  For her birthday, she drank cinnamon apple spice.

Brain Games Kids was a thoroughly enjoyed birthday gift from family-friends!

She chose to have a lemon cake!
