One hour before the party started, just as my last club members were leaving . . . I found Joe (birthday boy) playing in the front yard . . . in his birthday clothes . . . with GREEN PAINT all over him!
Of course, I immediately whisked him up to his room and took pictures (LOL!!!) and then changed him, washed his face and continued to SCRAMBLE to get ready for the next onslaught of guests!
AND THEN . . . . just 20 minutes later . . . now about 30 minutes before guests are to be arriving . . . the birthday boy was playing outside and we heard him crying . . . .he had fallen out of the apple tree and landed (on his FACE!) on the brick path below . . .
Here's the CLEAN (Spiderman) birthday boy . . . (with a scratched nose) posing with Mom (me) at the party!
Oh, yeah . . . I forgot (LOL!) to mention that 2 days before the party (Thursday) Joe woke up with PINK EYE!
I had to get him into the Dr. immediately so he could get on antibiotic eye drops in enough time before the party so he didn't give that special gift to his party guests!
Ahhhh . . . we made it through the party, the pink eye, the paint, the fall from the apple tree . . . time to celebrate . . .
Sunday morning, we took the kids (my boys and their cousin) down to the beach so they could enjoy the beautiful day . . . all mishaps of the previous day now just a memory (except for the scratched nose!!) . . .
What did you do last weekend? LOL!
