Time to partay!

The cupcake bakers
 The gold fish eaters
 When we moved on the block it was Olivia, Joe, and August...and a kid at the end of the block we never saw.  Now there are 10 in addition to those 4!  Most of them are close to Greta's age, so for her birthday we invited them to bring their favorite yard toy and come hang out.
 Linda (in the pink) owns a sushi restaurant.  Her daughter is Amanda (in the truck above with Greta and Lilly).  She offered to have her sushi chef make a couple of trays for the party.  It really was a work of art.  Every been to a 3-year-old's party with sushi?  Me either.



 The party started nicely in the back with a little truck sitting and beam walking and sushi eating.


But it wasn't long before the big kids were offering rides out front and the back yard emptied.






 Every kid, on every vehicle...



 Some monster bubbles
 These are the newest additions to the block.  Ben and Jamie and their son Big Henry - he's in the wagon behind Olivia two pics above.

Everyone went home for sweat shirts and we picked up a few more folks out front.




You think my kids are deprived, Big Henry had only had juice for the first time this week.  You should have seen him staring at those cupcakes.  




And then the sugar kicks in



Sweet, sweet friends.  Always up for celebrating a McBride birthday.  Michael and Lor, August's parents.
