Par-Tay Highlights

Well, I have to say that I enjoyed the party yesterday far more than last year's. There was, in fact, only six kids in attendance, far better than the 18 that were here last time. The food was appreciated, but we all know the only guests who eat at kid parties are the adults.

The weather was fairly decent, so the younglings played outside for a good portion of the two-hour party. Son got a Star Wars hover-disk from one of his pals, so that kept them occupied until they threw it into the woods. Husband rescued it, but his jeans were stained from all the wild berries.

(And no, Obi-Wan is not on either side of this disk. Bummer!)

Son got a lot of nice gifts, which he'll be writing out thank-you cards for today after church.

Yeah, it turned out to be a good party, but I think we'll be taking the next couple years off until Daughter is in first grade; at that point we'll start up with parties again, and maybe Son will be old enough to have one or two pals over for a sleep-over/movie/junkfood fest.
