the Girls- Birthday 2006
 |
The girls got a bunch of stuff in the mail pre-birthday, so we stacked it all up for them. |
| They both got terrific new dresses! |  |
 |

|
The real party was on the weekend; to celebrate the actual day, George built this cake and decorated it himself. [ed- actually, he was just being an engineer and using up all the frosting odds-and-ends from the 'fridge |
 |
 |
The party them was a Pool Party- we heated up the pool to 85 degrees and everyone went swimming! |
| Here's Zoran and Pat, a couple of George's old zip2 buddies, with their kids. |  |
 |
One of the hits of the party was a birthday hat with candles, as modeled here by Taylor... |
| ...and here by Joepa. |  |
 |
Lots of the girls' buddies showed up including Allie and Minna. |
| The gallery, all decorated, and everyone eating! |  |
 |
Taylor, Allie and Phoebe hanging out in the playhouse! |
| Of course, no party is complete without a Jumpy House! |  |
 |
At some point during the day, almost everybody got in. Right now, it looks like Phoebe, Jordan, MJ and Joepa. |
| And we had a pinata- instead of whacking at them, now all the kids choose a string and only one string works... oh, well, i guess they call it progress. |  |
 |
Our buddies Gardner and Heidi stuck around after everyone blasted off. It's always fun hanging with them and catching up on stuff. |
|
Heidi got cold, so we gave her a Packers sweatshirt (perish the thought..!) HERE's some girls building a bed out of the couch pillows. All in all, a great time was had by all! |
