Kezia planned a simple party this year, and it was LOADS of fun! All she wanted was a pinata, cake and ice cream, and go to the beach to play. We added in one relay as kids were arriving. The weather mostly held up, and with 15 good friends including siblings and friends' siblings, we were all in for a good time. Kezia reeallly wanted a sea horse pinata. With only 1 1/2 hours before the party started, we finally had time to go buy one. We were both so happy when we saw a sea horse pinata hanging on the wall, just as she wanted. Such a blessing!
Kezia has great friends. I
When we got the beach, there was hardly anyone out. See all the kids in the water? Those are all the partyers. So fun to have friends who enjoy the water as well! The kids were surfing, boogie boarding, or just playing in the surf break. The conditions were perfect for the kids. Super calm, but a bit of a bump to make things fun.
A few days later we went on a family (+friend, Kala) to the Fun Factory and to get Frozen Yogurt. We usually only do a friend or a family party. As we were driving up to the Fun Factory, I was wondering how Kezia weaseled two parties... oh well, the more fun the better!
