Scott's Birthday Party!

Valentine's Day also happened to be Scott's Birthday! This year his party was unique in many ways. This was the first year he had an outdoor "summer" party. We put out the word to the neighborhood kids on Saturday afternoon that we would have a party Sunday afternoon. Well, shortly after we arrived home from church the kids started coming! We had about 20 kids (including ours) in the backyard where we played a bunch of games (Dodge Ball, Flying Dutchmen, What's the time Mr. Wolf, Pass the Parcel and a Treasure Hunt) and ended with a "Nintendo" shaped cake!

Birthdays aren't really celebrated much here so the kids had a blast! When we asked them which games they liked the best they declared, "the Lolly games!" (Lollies are candies.) It was a good chance to interact with some of the kids in the neighborhood.
