This weekend was Trev's party. The weather started out a little wet then dried up nicely. At least the good thing about a summer party is even when it is raining it is still warm outside. Trevor was excited to see his school friends that he has not seen since school let out. It was a big Kindergarten reunion!
The kids were outside the whole time, even in the rain. They played with squirt guns, then we played a water game that we had learned at VBS a couple days prior to the party. There were 2 buckets at each end one end the buckets were filled with water and sponges, the other end the buckets were empty. There were two teams and the first team to fill the empty bucket with water by wringing out the water from the sponge won. They had so much fun we played a few rounds. I could not resist the temptation to spray them a few times with the hose :) The kids loved it and kept asking for more!
Later we had a pinata and presents. This year instead of a traditional cake or cupcakes we decided to do something a little different. We had the kids make ice cream sandwiches with cookies, ice cream, chocolate chips, sprinkles and crushed nuts. The kids had a lot of fun decorating their ice cream sandwiches and eating them too :) It was a huge success and very little messed involved! Since we did not have a cake we put the candle in the ice cream to sing Happy Birthday. I think this may be our new birthday tradition.
Happy Birthday Trevor, We love you!!
