a skating party and a few other things


 about 2 months ago i took the kids to their first ever skating party. okay so i'm a bad mom! i just didn't think they were ready and i didn't want to take them to the skating rink in albany so late in the day cause you know bad stuff happens over there after dark...and during the day...actually all the time! anyway here we go!


is she just the cutest thing on skates or WHAT!!??

there was a really cool clown there and  her name was sunshine. she made the most amazing balloon animals/figures. she made rivers a flower and later on she made her a monkey climbing a palm tree complete with coconuts!!! sadly enough i don't have a picture of that one :( it was so cool!

every time i saw jake whizz by this is what it looked like! really! he was good and it's a thousand wonders that he didn't break something that day! he seems to not be a quitter! :)

and who in a million years woulda EVER guessed that ben would ask sunshine to make him a balloon fishin pole....complete with a fish!you can't see it really well but there's even a reel on there!! COOL!

see? what did i tell ya? blur.....cause that's how he roll's..haha...get it? that's how he ROLL"S...... 

And Ben, well......notsomuch. Everytime Map looked up Ben was at the other end of the rink, on the floor and couldn't get up. He was done with that!

and here's the skate princess/fairy. too cute  :)
i almost forgot to tell ya about the face painter. she also was awesome and brilliant! i think her name is Ms. Ponda? from moultrie? i think. anyway, she didn't have the normal "paint" she had like powder or something that was eyeshadowlike and she had water to wet her brush and wiped it inthe powder. it went on so smoothly and prettily. as you can see. and she wasn't like all those other face painters. ms. ponda was "with a quickness" i would not be afraid to say she painted like 10 kids faces in less than 15 minutes! seriously!

and how cool is jake? she turned him into a tiger in less than 2 minutes! awesome i tellya!

and i know ben is gonna surprise you all! can you believe he asked for a SNAKE!? what? i just knew he'd say FISH! fooled me! he was hidin like a snake in the grass!

here they are goin in to see grandma and pa. i told them they had to walk in the house backwards so they couldn't see them comin in the door.....so they did! all the way up the steps and into the house!

the next few pictures have absolutely nothin to do with the skating party. they are just some i threw in. here's one of a pillowcase "shirt" . i just thought it would be cute. i had one of my "visions" . this case was also only a quarter!

this is what the pillowcase dresses look like on an actual little girl....versus hangin on a clothesline :)

and i know this picture is a little odd but i was just wonderin if i' the only mom out there that will do just about ANYTHING to make her kids happy? including parking dead in front of city of tifton workers to watch them dig up the middle of 20th street? i mean seriously? have i COMPLETELY lost my mind? you know we sat there for probably 30-45 minutes watchin them? and in complete silence i might add! just sayin.
