Remington's 6th birthday was a carnival. I have wanted to try this for a couple years and she finally thought it was a good idea! She said after the party it was her " best one yet!" It was a lot of work to plan and took some time, but I had the summer to space things out so it was worth it for sure. She had so nuch fun and so did everyone else. This is the "Andy the Balloon Guy," who drove in from San Angelo. He said he had been looking for a new hat to buy and found one just for this party! Thanks Andy!! You were great!
And to all the friends and family who helped run a booth, THANKS SO MUCH! Remi had a fabulous time. This will be one she remembers a long time.
Jaci playing "Water Gun Blast." Dad was the announcer on this game. He ALWAYS had a line at his booth, Mom said it was due to his "presentation." He sounded like a real "carnie," making the kids all want to play. Too Funny. :)
As always August birthdays are HOT. And today, thank you so much, the wind was blowing AT LEAST 60 MPH! But at least we had shade and popcicles to tide us over until cake time. Remi in her "6" shirt. I wanted her to wear a rainbow tutu, but I settled for this instead. It turned out pretty cute.
Remi with her cake I made. Thank you Aunt Sandra for giving me the "cake making bug!"
More pictures above. I always put them in the wrong order and then it messes up my whole post, so I am just going to do another entry. :0)
We had "pony" rides. Only it was Sam, our horse, but he kids certainly didn't care. :) This is my nephew, Tennison.
Remi and Maddee Gene enjoying their balloon animals.
Two of my silly brothers posing at the party! Not sure how Jon got talked into being the girl...
Hot dogs, popcorn, chips, cotton candy and caramel apples. That's right, carnival food. Well, yes, JUNK, but man was it tasty!!
Remington sack racing Laramy. Many a kid bit the dust trying to win this! Little did they know, everyone was a winner at this party! Prizes for everybody!
