GEMS Mother-Daughter Tea

BY:ESTHER
On Wednesday night mommy and I went to a special GEMS night. It was called the mother tea night. We had to get dressed up really fancy. At the beginning Miss Kaitlyn (our main leader) told us a bunch of facts about tea. Then after we had our picture taken and played a game we got to have snack. It was Oreos dipped in dark chocolate with sprinkles. During that each mom and daughter had to take a quiz with the questions about the facts we heard in the beginning plus a bonus question. The question was "Who said this quote?" The quote was "A woman is like a tea bag- you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water."  Can you guess who it was? It was Eleanor Roosevelt. After that we did a craft. It was the bracelet you see in one of the pictures below. At the end they had some prizes to give out. One was for the people that got all the questions right on the quiz. The other was for the best dressed mother-daughter team. Mommy and I got all the questions right on the quiz even the bonus question so we got to pick a prize from the front table. My friend Clara and her mom got them all right too! Mommy and I got the same thing. We got a big box of sweet tart chewy candies. I had a good night, and a fun night too!


I wore my father daughter banquet dress from last year and Mommy wore her dress from Aunt Karen's wedding (Aunt Karen).


 The game we played while waiting for our picture this game. We had to balance marshmallows on a popsicle stick and walk between some chairs!


That was the picture we got taken!


This is me working on my bracelet!


 This was the finished product!


That was the teapot that was on our table!
