Birthday Party

Today the girls and I went to a birthday party for a little girl we met at swim lessons. I was a little nervous about going since we really don't know them but decided to be brave and go. The party was at their house in lyons. Everything went smoothly thank goodness considering I was byself with people I hardly know in place I've never been before! How they did the party was very cute. It was in their backyard that had a large play sturcture, everyone brought a warpped book instead of presents and every kid recieved a book to take home. I just hope this doesn't confuse Alexis at other kids birthday partys. All together the whole party was only an hour and and half. I never relized how much time presents take, at this party there was a puppet show, pin the tale on the donkey, lunch, and playtime and was still shorter then any of Alexis' parties. So now that I have birthdays on the brain I have started losly planning my girls next birthdays. I am taking any ideas for a one year olds birthday in November. I'm stempped!
