Ashlyn had her 10th birthday yesterday with school friends. It all was a great party and interesting to get to know Ashlyn's friends better. We started the party with some trampoline time until everyone got here. Then we roasted hot dogs and smores and hung out in a tent in the backyard. After we ate, we went into the dark garage with some cute battery operated lanterns I bought at the dollar store. I setup a camp in the garage and hid 100 pretend dollar bills around the garage. They "hunted" for the money in the dark using their lantern light. The winner got a cool water bottle w/ a spout and handle. Then we headed upstairs to do a camping word search. The first one done won an umbrella. We made some personalized water canteens with their names on them and headed back to the tent for presents. Then we enjoyed cake and ice cream, and parents started to arrive. It was perfect timing and a fun time everyone said. It's no wonder Ashlyn doesn't talk much at school, she can't get a word in with these girls! They're very sweet and can keep 2 1/2 hours loud and interesting. We can't wait to have them back again next year.
