Yeah, I know. It's far too early to be thinking about this...but this is me. I get an idea and it sticks in me noggin'. I've decided to do a Mad Tea Party a la Alice in Wonderland (no, not based on the Disney version). I've got a lot of good ideas including having the guests dress in their finest party wear, croquet on the lawn (I have a kiddie croquet set providing it isn't too cold), the clean cup (hot potato) game, and all sorts of delicacies. Behind the cut are some of the things I want to do. I'm going to make a chessboard checkered patterned table cloth and have their place cards on playing cards. I'll have no choice but to wear my Queen of Hearts gown and perhaps make Meghan wear either a White Rabbit or a doormouse costuem. This is going to be great! Any and all suggestions are welcome. This party will include both boys and girls so long as the boys dress up too!
It will be all too soon that Maddie will want to just play laser tag or go rollerskating for her birthday. I have to do these things while I still can.
I'll either try to make this myself or hire someone to do it. I think I'll go with the latter as opposed to the former. Here are some ideas.
Tarts are most necessary.
