Two Parties

It's pretty common that we'll get invitations for multiple parties in one weekend, but when they overlap or are too close together I usually just choose one. Today we had two parties scheduled for the exact same time and really wanted to go to both, so... we did.

The first was a combination big sister birthday and meet-the-new-baby party for one of Chuck's long-time friends and co-workers. They had a princess bounce house, all sorts of of fun toys, the food was delicious, the baby was adorable, and honestly - we could've hung out there all day.

It's a good thing we didn't because I would've missed wishing my co-worker's baby a happy 1st Birthday! We arrived late to party #2 but still got to visit with lots of friends, enjoy some ice cream, and play outside with their new water table, which was perfect for a hot afternoon.

When we got home, Will was outside playing with his family and Aurora yelled "Yay! Will's outside! Finally something fun for me to do!" HUH? What were we just doing all day!?!? Granted, playing with Will is pretty fun. We ended the day with bubbles, sidewalk chalk and hula hoops.

Clark was such a trooper. He took a morning nap, but I had to cut his early afternoon nap short so that we could leave on time, and that was it. I thought he'd fall asleep in the car or get overtired during dinner, but he just smiled and enjoyed the long afternoon of playing and people watching. Next weekend we have invitations for two birthday parties back-to-back, but we're only going to one...
