End of school party

We may have been crazy, but Samantha Pitts, Mindy Andrus and I decided to put on an end of the school year party for our kids and their friends. The weather beforehand looked a little ominous, in fact, I had several parents call and ask if it was still on. We got to the park and shortly after, it did start to rain for a few minutes, then it stopped and we had a great time.

After sending out 60 invites, we had no idea how many would actually show up to our little get together. From the best count we could get, we had somewhere between 50 - 60 kids there.
The kids played 3-legged races.....


The water over their back into another cup game....(I don't really know what the true name of the game was)



Ali was in her favorite spot (being pampered)....
thanks Jeanette!!!

Balloon tosses.....


Balloon fight, of course.....

And finally came the goodies, cookies, chips, and lots of otterpops.

I think everyone had a good time, and, maybe next year we can attempt to do this again. But before I really want to think about that, I need to go take a looooonnnnnngggggg bubble bath.
