Parents were allowed to walk their children into the dining room to find a seat and then the hostesses sent us on our way!! The kids all got a seat and we took a couple of pics.......then they had to wave goodbye! The tables were completely decorated with confetti, streamers, food and beverages and flowers. It looked like so much fun!
I wasn't worried about DD at all, as she does really well with people she doesn't know. There were some kids who were a bit apprehensive about being left, but when we picked them up all of them seemed to be smiling!!!
I took the hour to shop(I got a cute Easter basket made at the shop upstairs) and then I strolled around the grounds and had a super yummy cocktail at the pool bar.
My DD truly had the most fantastic time ever and she was so excited to take her own camera! Even if you send your DD with one of those disposable cameras she will get good shots. ONe of the hostesses took my DD's camera and got some cute pics of her and Alice and the Mad Hatter. I am still trying to upload everything

how many photos can I take?!?....I think the Tea Party pics are next. I'll send you a link as soon as they are up.
I really would send her, my DD also dressed up in an Alice dress that she bought there with her own money. It was so cute that I told her she was going to have to wear it for Halloween!
