What I did this summer.
Well, it's been a while.... we took a bit of a break over the summer. We had birthday parties galore and Nanny has moved in!
First in August we celebrated Maggie's 4th birthday with a Nemo themed party.

We had a great time and everybody got to 'touch the butt'....

We sang the 'baby shark song'....

And we killed nemo...

Then in September we celebrated Zion's 9th birthday with a Super Mario party.

This party was about the decorations...

We had lots of fun making these guys. We cut them out and decorated his bedroom with them.

For the games, we had Mario and Luigi pinatas

We did a scavanger hunt with Mario clues. The kid's had to find the ? boxes to collect their gold coins. Which of course they used to 'buy' their boxes.

We also had a Yoshi's Egg hunt

The kids worked on these two and you can see Luigi's head after the pinata had been destroyed.
All in all, it was a pretty fun birthday. Zion got a zillion gamecube games so they pretty much spent the rest of the day playing games. = ) Oh! And I almost forgot. We took pictures of all the kids in the Mario cutout and some of the kids made perler bead mushrooms to take home.

And didn't I mention that Nanny was moving in? That's right. We're so excited to have her living with us now. It's been a process - getting her in and settled but we're almost done.
So that's what we've been up to.
School's in full swing and I hope to catch you up on all that soon.
till then... |
