Fiesta, Fiesta

Last weekend Tony's parents were in town for the big birthday bash on Saturday. We rented a pavilion at Patapsco State Park and had a 3-way celebration to celebrate Lottie's 1st birthday and Lucas and Lily's 3rd birthdays... We got there early to set up and it was pretty chilly and windy. Baby Nathan was a good sport - he slept in the car for 2 hours :) The theme was "Madagascar"/jungle animaly. I drew big pics of all the characters from the movie... We had green streamers like "jungle grass"... We played "pin the beak on the penguin" and had a pinata. Of course, the big hit was the moonbounce :) No surprise there! Once the sun got above the trees, it warmed up nicely... The party went for close to 5 hours, and by the end even the big kiddos were pooped. What a fantastic day!!!!!

Charlotte didn't pick up the cake and try to eat it... She mostly smashed it in her fists and ended up taking a few licks of icing...
