I’m so behind on blogging-every time I get on the computer it seems I’m making cards, birth announcements, etc… I just haven’t had time to update my personal blog. So I’m making the time today to do it before I forget stuff.
So this year we decided to to join the girls parties together-I’m so glad we did-even though they are almost 2 months apart. It was nice to get everything done and now I don’t have to worry about another party in October-which is crazy month for us anyway. So a pool party was already planned, but the girls had two different themes. Blakely had mermaids and Lilly had fairies-aka Tinker Bell. Well of course it hasn’t rained in weeks or maybe months…who knows, but it decided to rain and storm 15 minutes before the party started and it continued to thunder for the next 30 minutes-so the rule is that you can’t swim until 30 minutes after the thunder has stopped….ughhh. Well there was no swimming involved at the girls swim party. So we moved on to plan b-there was actually no plan b but hey the kids didn’t know that. We ate, did cupcakes, opened presents and then out of nowhere came the camp site person with his banjo to save the party. He sang great kid songs and the kids danced and had the best time-Yeah for the mysterious banjo player-you were a life saver. Then we decided to move the party to the play area and of course after being there 5 or so minutes another downpour comes-so party was over early, but I think everyone had a great time. I know the girls had a wonderful time. We did have a few melt downs over presents-aka Lilly, but it was great sharing their party since they are so young. I think we might do it again next year.

Some songs they knew and some they didn’t, but they didn’t seem to care.
