Party Central

To celebrate  11 years of

laughter,

encouragement,

giggles,

wit,

and thoughtfulness,

we had a party.

The DDs 1 & 2 are both excellent event planners, and together they cooked up a

Game Night

theme.

The centerpiece was a Upwards game board.

Munchies included a turkey-and-ham checkerboard,

and, last but not least, homemade cake roll! (My camera rebels in low light. Grrr!)

The evening’s entertainment: GAMES, and lots of them, like  Imagineiff, Cheese Dealer (a card game), and Twister!

If you are struggling with a fun “teen” party idea, we wholeheartedly recommend this one!  Lots of laughter and no hormonal squabbles were reported.

We love you, DD#2!

Have the Happiest of Happy Birthdays!

Love,

Mama, Daddy, and DD#1

Be blessed today,

Ginger

    Hey Ginger, do you still have my leader kit for Stepping Up? I may have a group interested in using it.

  4. I have a very old Parcheesi board ... I used to love to play it! Oh, for a minute I thought Jenni R (winner) was me! ha. I don't think I even commented that day - but you know - the name got me! mmmmm peaches. We're hoping ours come off the tree edible (no bird bites or worms and ripe enough!) Remember you gave me an award in March? I never did a response, I just couldn't come up w/one I would be comfortable with. Thank you, again, cuz it warmed my heart when I had been so sick. Hugs, J

  6. How very creative Ginger! Happy birthday to DD#2!

    We just had a teen party here this last week. They all played ultimate frisbee. It was fun to watch them smile while they were running! These are wonderful days.

    Blessings to you all.
