Piper's party

So not quite one week after he turned 4 Piper got her birthday party. On Sunday we had the "4th Annual Piper County Fair" in our backyard (yes, I love theme parties). We had a hay ride, a "fish pond" behind an Ariel sheet, milk cans (or Gatorade bottles) to knock over, and a ball toss. My FIL made 2 GORGEOUS kid sized carnival booths to use (which we will also use as puppet theaters and lemonade stands forevermore), and the kids got popcorn, crayons, and homemade coloring books as prizes from the games. Since we are currently poor as churchmice this party was done for basically nothing and ALL the kids had a grand time! I LOVE homemade parties, and even if her friends do rent out the city pool and have ponies at their parties, Piper seemed to love her 4th birthday. I hope it provides good memories for her. :)
