I now know how to throw the perfect birthday party! The kids got to go to one yesterday. We were all invited to the birthday party of our neighbor's daughter. They put out a little pool and a huge inflatable water slide. The kids were out there ALL afternoon! Loved it!
Callie enjoyed the pool when she got tired of sliding
But mostly she went down the slide. All afternoon long! And yes, next time, the swim shirt will be non-negotiable. She got toasted.
Delaney dutifully wore she swim shirt and only got sunburn on her face. She had a marvelous time going up and down the slide. She only stopped for cake, and only briefly.
Why yes, those are my children sitting on the slide. And yes, Marian did leap from one to the other till I made her stop. I don't know why MY children have to think outside the box and climb on everything!
And let me document the fun of the slide in 5 easy photos:
Joshua also had a birthday. He will have a friends party next week, so we just had a family cake and ice cream and gifts.
Marian could not wait for this gift to be opened. She had picked it out and you can see that Joshua is thrilled with it. Too bad they have to wear uniforms to school- bleh.
Waiting with the goodies. It was tasty cake!

Did I mention yummy cake? Callie said it was better than the one at the water slide party. I didn't tell her it was from a mix!
And here is my little trouble maker, Rylee. Sure, she LOOKS innocent!
