A Verry Merry UnBirthday To You!


Today, we threw Hailey an extremely belated birthday party.  It was only a little over four months late (closer to five months to be honest)...  Jeff and I were in Costa Rica in January during her birhtday and told her we would throw her a party when we got back.   For some reason, it has taken me this long to get her party together.


There were about 9 kids (including Hailey and Pete) here for the party.  I think everyone had a great time.  Upon arrival, they had their faces painted.  Then, they had a snack and enjoyed dec
orating their own cupcakes.

With full tummies, we relocated outside to batter the tea pot pinata.  After everyone had several swings and not much was happening, it was time for Jeff to step up to bat.  He managed to whack it hard enough to spill the much anticipated candy and prizes.  The kids all scrambled to gather their treasures.  It was wonderful to see so many happy, smiling faces!

Then, we headed back inside for a game of Pin the Tail on the Donkey.  After the first few kids had a turn, we figured out they were cheating...  The blindfold was see-through!  Oh well, they enjoyed it and in the end it was a tie.  Luckily, I had two prizes, just incase.
