Party
Put all these P words together to see what fun we had at Mary's 10th birthday party.
- Park: we had the party at the park on May 16th (one week delayed due to cows). Unfortunalty this was a three day weekend from school, resulting in only 1 person out of the 8 people invited coming. Sad, sad Mary! Luckly that one was her BEST FRIEND. So, thanks to Katie, the party was saved. (our hero)
- Puzzle: we started the party with a puzzle game. 1st clue, put together a jigsaw puzzle made from a picture of Mary. 2nd clue, use code on back of puzzle to solve this word game. 3rd retrive last clue from Dad's pocket as directed. 4th follow final directions to find where the puzzle ends.
- Popsicles: the puzzle ended where Dominick had hidden our icechest full of popsicles and juice for the birthday treat.
- Pinata: blindfolded kids, holding a bat with candy hanging just out of reach...need I say more?
All in all it was fun despite the poor turn out. Katie was able to spend the whole day with us something that could not have happened if everyone had come. At the end there was only room for one more P word. Pooped . . .man was I tired.
It looks like a fun party - even though only one friend could make it. But isn't it amazing how siblings fill in those gaps so well? It's still a party as long as you have sisters (and brother) around! Thanks for letting Rebecca sit with you at the movie. I think that was her highlight of the week. (kind of a scary movie -- did she end up in your lap?) :)
