Party Time Preschool Style!
Yesterday we had Cali's birthday party! We spent the morning driving around town getting all the last minute things ready for it. Then we headed home to decorate with all the fun Wiggles decoration. When I spread out the table cloth Cali SQUEALED "YAAAAY" and did a happy dance while clapping. It as just the cutest thing. Melisa learned how to tie balloons and she blew up almost all the balloons we had!
The party started at 2:30 and we had a great turn out (only one guest didn't show up and that was because strep throat struck)! We had three kids from church (and parents), the boy that lives down the street, and one of the students that works in the missions office show up. Plus the four of us and Mommom and G-doug. The house was full and we had lots of fun.
We started the party by simply opening up that backdoor and letting the kids play with all of Cali's new BIG toys! Cali got a playhouse, a sand and water table, a princess lawn table and chairs, and a slide. Melisa got a special present too...she got a greenhouse popup tent with a garden set. Our backyard was turned into a preschoolers dream yard, LOL. I also brought out Cali and Melisa's plastic bats and balls and we played a little ball. I think the adults and Chin Goo (the dog) had as much fun as the kids! When things started to wind down outside we pulled out the pinata and let the kids take turns pulling the strings. Melisa got the lucky string and candy went everywhere! We have the funniest picture of the kids diving to get the candy that fell.
After the pinata we headed inside for finger foods and visiting. The adults sat around and had fun chatting while the kids had a blast in the playroom. They would check in to the adults every few minutes to get another bite. We had the wiggles DVD's playing and the kids must have danced along for about 15 or 20 minutes. It was too cute, I just wish I had gotten out the video camera!
Of course we ended the party with cake, ice cream, and presents! We had the cutest Wiggles cake and found some Dora banana and strawberry ice cream. It was YUMMY. Cali got all outside toys (by mom and dad's request). She got TONS of bubbles and bubble toys. She got sidewalk chalk, a little waggon that she can put her toys in, sand toys, a jump rope, and pull around, and lots of balls (from her Sissy). She also got some summer clothes, a DoodleBops CD, and a new movie (the Bambi Special Addition).
The party slowly died down and by 5:30 it was calm in the house again. Cali had an AWESOME Birthday and Birthday Party! It was so awesome to have a backyard at our house to celebrate in and even more awesome to have family here to celebrate with us! I think we had all the Wiggly Fun possible!
ps...know that tomorrow pictures will come, it is just too late tonight to get it done...I know, I am slacking...LOL!
