Well, we had a birthday spa party for our 10 year old Angie! Happy birthday sweetie--we are so proud of the lovely lady you are becoming. What a fun night we had.

I never got a chance to actually count, but I think we had close to 20 kids there. (More continued to trickle in throughout the night--I think word had gotten out around the neighborhood that I was offereing free babysitting or something--j/k--the more the merrier!) At first they all just had some food and played in the backyard, then we got into three groups and began our "spa treatments". It of course was somewhat chaotic, but I like to think it was organized chaos. Whatever it was, they all seemed to have a great time.

Jennie helped make beautiful toes--and even the few boys that were there enjoyed the bubbly--water that is!

Lisa helped out with letting all the partiers make their own frame and then we took a goofy pic of them with their facial mask on and put in it the frame to take home.

Giggly girls and pampering--what more could you want!

Happy birthday dear Angie......

Even Logan enjoyed our natural mask--it was good enough to eat--and some did! Oatmeal, yogurt and honey.

After their facial scrubs, they got take turns giving each other a massage in the round--just be careful not to drip on the person's back in front of you!

There is NO WAY I could have done it without this lovely team of helpers--thank you so much fellow moms, super babysitter Dominique, and Jennie. Also thanks Jack for being a super Dad and helping out behind the scenes with the pictures--and taking this picture! You guys kept your hands very busy! Dominique brought us her hand waxing thingy where you put your hand in melted wax and then peel it off for soft and supple fingers--too fun!

Here's just a few more pics around the house this week--most include that little gal that is charming us all more day by day. (By the way, I had planned to give Ella her first pedicure at the party, but yeah it just didn't happen--however, we still plan on doing it soon!)
Uh...yeah..she's a cutie...

This is an old picture of me at 2 months with my older brother Danny...

Here's Logan and Ella at 6 weeks..so similar huh? I just thought it was pretty neat!

Sunny is the croqueting queen! She has made matching headbands for EVERYONE in our family--if you would like an order, please contact her at least ten minutes in advance.

Aurrrgh matey!

Here's a pic for an update on Ella's back and neck muscles--looking sharp lady!

Woo hoo! Congrats on making it through this lengthy post! Have a super day!

How fun! How fun! How fun! Happy Birthday Angie! (Good name by the way!) :) Carolyn you're such a fun mom, what a great idea for a party. And kuddos to Jack for being so outnumbered! :)
I loved the picture comparison with Ella and Logan and you and your brother. How sweet!
Carolyn,
The party sounds like a blast! You had a lot of kids there. I bet Angie loved it. Ella is so cute too. She looks just like your kids.
