Tender Hearted Kids Restaurant

Trying to teach the kids how to SERVE others.  It is kind of a hard characteristic to teach since our natural instinct is to be selfish.  One of the ways we decided to try and teach them this is by having them serve their Grandparents Dinner. 

The name of our restaurant was Tender Hearted Kids and we even made up our own menus.  Our first special guests were Grandma and Pappy Bumbaugh.  Ava called and left them a verbal invite on their answering machine.  This was to celebrate their anniversary.  When they arrived to our house, the kids met them at the door and took their coats.  Then Ava lead Pappy and Christian led Grandma to the candlelit table. 

The kids were sooo excited!!!!

We had spaghetti dinner and heart shaped cupcakes for dessert with fresh strawberries from Florida. Pappy Tipped the kids after the meal was over and they rushed back to put their money in their Disney bank.

Happy Anniversary Grandma and Pappy!!!!


 
The Second couple of guests were Nana and Pappy Sweetheart.  The kids met them at the door again too.  We had appetizers and a spaghetti dinner.  They again met the guests at the door and escorted them to the table. 
The kids were tired this particular night at the restaurant so they just were not in the mood to do quite the serving they had done before.  However, they did a great job over all.  They were very sweet and attentive.  :)  Pappy also tipped them which went directly into their Disney bank again too.
