the handmade birthday party.

at leah and lily's party, each of the bigger kids were in charge of a game.
jakob made the pinata...
ellie made "pin the tail on the dragon"
anna helped with the pinata and did musical papers...
and drew blew up 25 balloons for balloon volleyball.
we had peanut butter and marshmallow circle sandwiches with sword toothpicks and finger foods (grapes, olives, cheese, pineapple, and watermelon) and fruit dip (strawberry cream cheese mixed with marshmallow fluff)... simple and easy to eat!
so fun!
i really like my job.
aren't birthdays great?!

    I love it when my kids get involved like that. They get as excited about the birthday as me and the birthday kid when they do! Looks like fun:)

    Looks like all the makings of a pretty fun par-tay.

    I read about somebody having an invisible pinata, and it was awesome...
