First, there are the cakes. I am at a HUGE disadvantage because I have to make them myself and with the creativity that Wendi and Hailie possess, they want cool things. Not that I blame them... I just wish I could DO as well as they VISUALIZE.
*sigh*
But, the cakes ended up pretty well. Here is Wendi's -- she was happy with hers.
Hailie's...before the face...
and after.
(I think I liked it better before I put the face on.) I'm pretty sure Hailie liked hers. She didn't say anything, though, just smiled. Usually when she doesn't like something, she'll say it.
It was a costume birthday party (it being Halloween morning and all). We had lots of friends (some of mine came to help, too -- no, she's not hiding. She was running the fishing game.)
and some great costumes (gangster and ninja here)!
Hailie really, really loved that fishing game. I think this was about the tenth time -- she claims she was "helping" Aidan this time. Right...
One of the games we played was to see who could pop their balloon first. Wendi got frustrated because she couldn't get hers to pop. So, she got creative. And friends helped.
(See the scissors?)
Thanks a bunch to Kelly, Laurel, and Cassi for getting things rolling and keeping it going!
