8th Birthday Bash



Ali had a Hannah Montana Beach Party for her birthday this year. (I am really behind in my postings) It was a great party for her! She just loves all her friends so much!
THANKS to our good friends Jaynan and Nate it turned out even better than I had imagined.
I was getting everything ready the morning of the party and doing the usual running around to get last minute things. As I was setting our beach layout up in the backyard I realized that our slip and slide had popped last year and I never bought a new one. So we were going to have a dumb blow up pool, sprinkler under the trampoline and a water ring that shoots water up in the air.
We had some water games planned also. Jaynan came over to drop Jade off and started to help blow up the water balloons. In talking with her I told her about the slip and slide. She quickly and very nicely offered to let us borrow their blow up water slide for the party. WHAT A HUGE HIT THAT WAS!! They all had so much fun.
I captured a few great photos, some just make me laugh. Had to put them in a slide show cause there were to many to post just in the layout.
Ali had a great birthday and was so happy that each one of her friends that came were there. She has talked about it constantly since her birthday.
