And groovy it was…

Addie made the stencil for the peace sign on the cake.  You could tell it was a peace sign right?  Are you checking out the cheese balls as well?  The favorite candy of the day was Swedish fish.  mmmm   

Playing the Wii Just Dance Kids and tie-dying bandanas.  

I wish the colors would have been darker but the design work was fun to see.  I used Rit powder with salt and detergent.  Lots of rubber bands, stuffed into a zipolc and set in the sun. 

 

Miranda opted to let her bandana dye in the ziploc a little longer.  When I said pose like it’s a cape, Miranda had Addie rolling. 

All in all a huge success!  We dropped a few of the party games when the rinsing part of tie dying went long.  Addie said it was the best party ever and with costumes like these and party snacks, including those cheese balls, well hands down, amen. 

In college my first roommate ever introduced me to Tommy Roe.  Heard of him?  From the early sixties.  He sings about girls, girls, and girls but it’s innocent and so danceable. His best are Dizzy, Sweet Pea (Paige’s Favorite), and Sheila. 

I let you all believe I was going to do the Lotoja by myself.  As if.  I didn’t even try to modify the post or jump into the comments.  Actually,we (Robyn, Vanessa, and Jen) applied for a 4 person relay ticket and we’ll know if we’re in by May.  Our team name:19kids@home.
