Creative, Cozy, and Comfortable: September 2013

This summer I decided to through a back to school party for my sister. And after a lot of planning sending out invitations ( I created them on Microsoft word) and waiting the day finally came.

The day before I melted crayons blues, greens, and whites. I also cut out fish, then when the girls came and we waited for other girls to come they got their "ocean"( blue paper or white paper) and glued their fish on. Then they used their crayons to make waves and other under the sea things.

When all the girls had come it was slip-en-slide time. Thanks to my helpers " beach bum, and surf nut" to keep the water going.

Then it was time to play " drip drip drench " Drip drip drench is like duck duck goose. Before the party I made "sea uchints " and filled a bucket up with water, you sit in a big circle and when it is your turn you get a " sea uchtint " and slowly drip water for duck and drench then for goose.

Next we were going to play sea lions where you are a sea lion and you have to keep the balloons up in the air but the wind was to strong so we played "what time is it mr. dolphin "

Soon it was time for lunch. For lunch we had green jello in the shape of shark, sea horses, star fish, and flowers, peanut butter and jelly or ham and cheese in the shape of a flower, melon ( I was going to cut it into star fish as well but the melon was to soft ), colorful gold fish, sweetish fish, crackers, and to top it off a mango smoothie. It was delicious!

And yes, I did use my fish to decorate. When you go your food you went outside and had a picnic lunch.

After they finished eating they got a plate and came to the bucket were I had put sand and sand treasures ( I mixed I up after the picture) Each girl dug up a shovel or two full and put it on their plate they went back to the table and sorted through it. Then they arranged them in a jar filled with sand. They look AMASSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
