Em.

I'm an aunt! Babies are babies are babies, but this is my niece! Her name is Emerald Maia. I can't wait to meet her in August.

Kids Party 2010.

Filling water balloons in the grossest section of my entire yard.

Hosted my first kids party this weekend. It got really ominous when the thunder started and the torrential rain began to fall as everyone was due to arrive. We started pulling all the stuff into the garage. Then somehow about a half hour later, it cleared and the sun (and bathing suits) even came out.



Not in any particular order we had:

Hotdogs
Pizza
Candy, Candy, Candy
Bubbles
Water Balloons
Slip 'n' Slide
Baby Pool
Hammock Fun ("Can we get that ropey thing out")
Hop Scotch
Squirt Guns
Candy, Candy, Candy
Fruity Pebble (ala Rice Krispie) Treats
Art Station Painting
Bean Bag Toss
Hobo-Style Goodlie Bags (Fave color bandannas filled with treats on sticks)
A Water Fight
("KATY! YOU GOT WATER IN MY EYES! I DON'T FORGIVE YOU!)
Kazoos
PiƱata
Candy, Candy, Candy
& Plenty of Sangria (for the older kids)

Oh so fun. And, I get to cross one off the To Do list. Hurray!

Greenhouse in My Car.

Got a bunch of flowers for the yard this past weekend. As I was loading up the car someone passing by said, What? You just drive around with a greenhouse in your car? I thought that was kind of a cute idea. What if you did?
