Happy Birthday Jenna



Yesterday we gave Jenna the presents from us, books and 2 movies. Then we took her to "applebeast" (applebees) because "they have Tarzan coloring books and they clap when it's your birthday". After Jason and I took her to Build-A-Bear as a surprise, she didn't know where she was going until we got there. She kept saying, "awesome!" It was really cute. She picked out a white and pink poodle and put her in ice skates. She also got a red wig for the poodle. Because as we all know, every poodle needs a wig.

Well, I sure am glad it's over, but it was a blast. We ended up with 19 kids coming (we had it in our church gym). They were invited to a Pajama Ball. I had gone to Walmart before and gotten a bag of 100 play gym balls (the plastic ones), 3 dodge balls, ping pong balls, buckets, and 2 hula hoops. We had ordered a 36" beach ball from Oriental Trading too. We played bounce the ping pong balls into the buckets, Keep the ball off the ground with the big ball, raced to see how fast the kids could get the play ground balls into the 3 buckets, and some other games. None of which Jenna would play, she cried saying they were too hard for her (the kids younger than her did fine with it). We then had a pinata that we filled with over 100 3/4" bouncy balls, some tattoos, and sticky hands. It was so cool to see all the bouncy balls go bouncing out of the pinata and the kids trying to get them.

We then had pink and purple pancakes (the purple looked gross, but tasted the same). I had got 4 types of drinks for the kids (and adults). After they ate, we opened presents...and Jenna got a ton.
4 Barbies, 1 Hannah Montana doll and surf shop, littlest pet shop, polly pocket with actual fabric clothes, a littlest pet shop scrapbook (yay! Jenna can SB her own stuff while I am doing mine), hop scotch game, princess rubbing plates (where you rub the black crayon over the plates and the princess shows up and you can change the top or bottom)...and a whole lot more.
