BIRTHDAY CARNIVAL

Grace is now 6! She had a great birthday! We invited all the neighborhood kids. All the kids over the age of 9 helped with the carnival games and all the kids under 9 came to the carnival. Savannah was the ticket master and gave everyone tickets. We had a fish pond, face painting by Lauren (very popular), ring toss, Basketball shoot, water balloon throw (this is were the kids threw a water balloon at Derek and if they hit him he fell back into a baby pool of water - Also very popular! ) And the biggest attraction was the Jumping Castle! They ate pizza and had clown cupcakes We even had a neighborhood friend who dressed up like a clown and rode his unicyle and made balloon hats! It was a great Success! We wish you could have all been there! Savannah made this fabulous sign!
Here's the Birthday Girl!
We had about 12 kids at the carnival and about 10 kids helping
We put Jackie in charge of the Jumping castle - we knew that she would make sure all rules would be followed!

What a nice thing to do on your birthday with all your friends and family! I think jumping in the castle would be soooo much fun:) I wish you could have had a pony ride that would have been even more fun. Maybe your mom could be in charge of that next time!
