"Friends" Birthday Party


It's finally all over!!!! Parachute/Dig for Goodies in the Pool/ Paint T-shirts/ Decorate Cupcakes! CHECK!

Taatjes said it was his "best day ever"! Yes, it was all worth it:) I think all the kids had a blast. The parachute was a huge hit. They played with it for a long time. Thank you to Dad for being the best parachute instructor/motivator ever!!! Digging for goodies in the pool was also a huge hit. I filled it with candy, reptiles, balls, kazoos, etc. They all went to town and it took longer than I expected which was great. T-shirt painting...um probably not again! As you can see I have no pictures of this activity because it was far to stressful to even think of walking away to grab the camera. They loved it and walked out with some fun T-shirts. I have to say a huge thank you to the moms who helped make sure my cabinets/fridge/stove were not covered in paint (I did put a tarp on the floor)! Cupcake decorating was hilarious. We had all kinds of sprinkles, marshmallows, chocolate chips, candy stars, and of course lots of frosting. Everyone had tons of frosting and even more stuff on top. Many of the kids could not finish the bottom of the cupcake once they finally ate through the top! I have about 20 cupcakes left...I was thinking they would all want at least 3 but there 1st frosting applications left little room in their stomachs for more:)

I am so glad it was fun for Taatjes and he loved it! Now I have a little break until Trey's...yikes, his friends are bigger!
