C's Birthday

Hi!

Today is C's 10th birthday!  She had her party on Saturday and invited 5 friends to spend the night.

Here's our first chalkboard "art" in the front room.

C made a sign to celebrate,

and set out bowls of candies. 

All the girls getting ready to eat hotdogs. 

Cake face! 

Opening presents! 

We pulled out the couch and set up an inflatable mattress. 

However, the mattress had a hole, so 2 girls ended up in C's room and the other 4 slept on the couch.

  And guess what we discovered the following day?  Lice!! AAGGHH!! :-(  This is our first experience with this and never have I been so conscious of every little itch on my head!  We got quite a few letters from the school last year whenever there was a case of lice. When I was tutoring and we got a letter, I was convinced my itchy head was full of lice, but luckily it wasn't!

Anyway, the girls had fun!   

Now I have a lot of hot water laundry-ing, hair combing, vacuuming, and waiting 2 weeks for the pillows, stuffed animals and C's new comforter to be decontaminated...

Hope you have a bug-free day! :-)
