End of School Year Party

We surprised the kids with an end of school year party. Candice thought of the idea and we implemented it without the kids finding out. Good job us!!! When the kids got to the car after Connor's crossover we took them to pick up pizza and told them of the party. Papa and Auntie Jenn got off work early to be at the party and Uncle Heath came over during his lunch hour to join in the festivities. Auntie Mel could not make it because she is in Portland on work related business. We missed her. After pizza we went swimming. I should say the kids went swimming. We all tried the pool but it was still to cold for us adults but the kids thought it was perfect and had a wonderful time. After swimming it was pinata time and the pinata was very stubborn. It took quite a few whacks by all the kids to get that candy to fall out. Once it hit the ground it was collected and put into bags to be taken with them when they go on their camping trip to Lake Powell this weekend...of course several pieces were eaten right away. We then went inside and had brownies and homemade vanilla ice cream. The day was fantastic and we are looking forward to a lot more swimming and ice cream over the summer. Maverick had to skip the brownies and ice cream but he enjoyed his Milk Bone all the same.
