Andrew's Summer Party


We had our first "friend" party to celebrate Andrew's 7th birthday. We invited the neighbor kids and some friends from Andrew's 1st grade class - in all we had 19 kids at the party! We tried to keep things really low-key and it actually turned out to be a lot of fun and not as crazy as I thought it was going to be!

The Minsons (B.J. & Maggie) drew chalk art on the lovely concrete wall surrounding our townhomes. We filled a kiddie pool with water and shooters...






Then there was a slip n slide...

Isaiah
Emily

Xidis

We didn't have time to make a cake this year and since Andrew doesn't like frosting, we got an ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins



We had hot dogs, chips & fruit for dinner...




Then Andrew opened his gifts...








Here was the chalk art before it got demolished...

James just had a birthday yesterday. Can you believe they're seven?!

I LOVE all your family pictures! Wow, that campus is the perfect backdrop with the bridge, officers' circle, etc.
