Granddaughter Christmas Tea Party

My mom, Aunt Denise, and Aunt Kathy put on a Christmas Tea Party for their Granddaughters. The girls enjoyed their special time with their grandmas and each other. We're hoping to make this a new yearly tradition!! Here is Ava by the tree with Tori and Joeli.
Tori and Ava practicing their "Nutcracker Moves" that they learned the night before.
My Aunt Denise got the girls all a cupcake name holder that is also a Christmas ornament. We wrote the date and occasion on the bottom of the ornament, a fun keepsake to remember their special day!
The Christmas Table set for the 5 girls.
The Grandmas all bought each of their granddaughters these real china Christmas tea sets to use every Christmas.
The food was very yummy and festive! What creative Grandmas!!
Finger Star-shaped ham and cheese sandwiches and little baby pickles.
Jelly rolls, homemade gingerbread cookies, cream wafers and cupcakes.
Spritz cookies, Christmas tree sugar cookies, and jam sandwiches (berry and mint) shaped like stars and Christmas trees.
The Grandmas serving the girls (the Moms got to hang out and sample all the yummy food too:)
Ava getting a jelly roll
Pink sugar for their pink tea, perfect for all the Princesses.
All 5 Granddaughters, Claira (5), Tori (4), Ava (3), Joeli (2), and Camden (1)

I love how HAPPY they look in this picture :) What a special day for these girls!!

And to make the day even more magical, it started snowing as we were getting ready to go home!!
Our driveway with a light dusting of snow! Watching the snow fall really made it feel so Christmas-y.
