Happy 10th Birthday Megan

Megan had her 10th Birthday Partylast weekend and it was a glorious day, 32 degrees in the shade.  Everyone enjoyed the water slide and the pool.  It was a good day with loads of sweets, cake and smiles.  I asked Megan why she only invited boys to her party, she said "Girls are no Fun!".

The Party Packs that they kids took home after the day.  As if the sugar rush at the party wasn't enough!

Double Figures of candles on the cake this year!
