Birthday, Baby, & Back to School Celebration

There was a lot to celebrate these last few weeks of August and my friend Jalyssa decided to lump them all together and throw this great party. First it was my Birthday, then my friend Lindsey and I were both having babies (hers didn't wait for the party - we missed you), and the kids were going back to school. She invited a bunch of the ladies and kids over for an afternoon of food, fun, and water. One last fling before daily schedules and routines take over our lives. I must say it was probably the best birthday I have had as an adult. I decided to give myself the day off of pricking my finger and enjoyed a few bites of watermelon, jello, and of course birthday cake.

The majority of the kids enjoyed the homemade water park in the backyard.
A few decided to stay out of the sun....
Too cute. I can't believe Bridgette can fold herself in half.
The coolest gift ever. The kids loved this diaper cake so much. It was hard to keep their hands off of it.
That evening we enjoyed a thin crust pizza from Papa Murphy's. The kids got me very practical presents for when Jack comes and then we all shared a Blizzard at Dairy Queen. All in all in was a good day. One more thing checked off of the list of events before Baby Jack's arrival.
