Summer Fun at the James'

The stars of the afternoon...
Kieran's turn yielded solid hits but no candy.
Actually Tyler's second turn (with a baseball bat) proved to be no match for the pinata and the candy spilled out on to the tarp. Mass chaos ensued, of which I didn't catch a single decent picture, but no fists were thrown and no blood was spilled and everyone walked away with a decent load of candy.
My boys with their bags of goodies.

Chase really got into his cake
Ava taking a swing at the pinata!
Cayden was one of the "older" kids, so he had to wear a blindfold. He still made some major contact with the thing.
Chase even had to have a turn..This kid is such a little cutie. You can't help but smile every time you look at him, even when he's crying, he's just sooo cute.

All of the kids got a bag full of goodies from the scavenger hunt.

So, Aunt Misty and Uncle Todd and the girls organized a party for all of the young ones in the hall. Finally today the weather cooperated! What a day it was. We had a bounce house, water balloons, scavenger hunt, yummy food, oh yeah, and a pinata full of sugary sweets. All of the kids had a BLAST! The adults too. I gotta mention Dan Chitwood's role in the huge water fight. He and Jose' put in a great offensive against Val and Brit. Despite their efforts, the girls kicked their butts. Dan was still wet 2 hours later. HA! I wished I would've gotten a picture of him, but I didn't. Oh well. All of us loved the party! I have put in a few pictures of the fun times we had...
