One long summer day we decided to have a tea party. I am a tea party fan so I was happy to acquiesce. I made some blueberry lemon scone and egg salad sandwiches, along with some mint herbal tea and hot chocolate for those who aren't herbal tea fans.
I thought it might be more fun to make this tea party interesting so I told the boys to go and find a costume and they had to come as a character other than themselves. They would come with one thing or two things on and I had to okay their costumes. We finally ended up with George Washington (we had just finished reading his biography), complete with a yarn braid.
He made the braid all on his own and it was pretty great. He also used my floppy hat to turn into one of the time period.
As the World Cup had just finished, Hunter wanted to be Tim Howard (seriously Amazing USA goalie). He found Josh's USA soccer shirt for the costume.
McKay was a hybrid policeman/Crocodile Hunter.
Lincoln loves Pokemon, so he was Ash.
My character was the host of a tea party. They tried to stay in character for the whole tea party and it ended up being pretty hilarious. This id definitely on my list to do again.
