High school friends get together!

My friend Lyndzi was coming to town from Ohio and she wanted to have a get together at my house with all of our high school friends. I am so glad that she was able to squeeze us in because she has so much family and friends to visit. Anyway, it was really fun. Here's a few pics.

Clara (Aubree's daughter) was so sweet!

After we had lunch we just sat outside to visit and let the kiddies fun free.

Lyndzi and Jenny Wow they both look tired :)

Gwen and Tayson (Jenny's little guy) playing.

Mckay, Lyndzi's little guy found a fake carrot but he sure loved it :)
I am so mad at myself for not grabbing a pic of all of us together. But thanks for coming to see me Lyndzi and thanks for making the drive Aubree. I love my friends!

Thursday Tea Parties

Well, it has been about a month since I started my new work schedule and I LOVE IT! Part of a new work schedule is a new watching my niece and nephew schedule. I now watch them on Thursdays from 8 to 6. It can be a long day so for now I am having themed tea parties. Which gives the girls something to look forward to, get ready for and help prepare which also keeps them busy. So far it has worked great. Last week we had a Hawaiian themed Luau. First we watch the Barbie in a Mermaid's Tale. Then they helped me make the pom poms for hanging decorations and the small ones for table decorations. My friend Aubree showed me the site how to do it. It was very easy and easy for the girls to help. But it did take longer then I planned so we just had pineapple jello and animal crackers. I was going to make fruit kabob's.

They put on their own make up. It was so cute to see them all dressed up with grass skirts and lays.

Even Gwen and Tayson had fun.

Next week we are having a pirate theme complete with a treasure hunt.
