Carlee's 8th Birthday

Carlee invited Maggie, Mikayla, Kylie, Ashley, and Sean (who is one of her and Cade's best friends). He played with Cade a lot and then Cade had a sleep over at Sean's so he wouldn't bug the girls.
Carlee wanted a swim party. We started off by eating Barros Pizza and then heading over to Sandy and Randy Carder's house for the kids to swim. (Carlee called waaaay ahead of time all by herself and asked Sandy permission to have a swim party at her house- was really cute!) They swam for a while and then we headed back home. I unfortunately didn't get any pictures of this.

When we returned home the kids painted some little plaster animals.

Will got the fog machines out and turned out all the lights and then we couldn't see at all- not even the lights shining in from outside. Then he started throwing glow in the dark necklaces into the fog and the kids were screaming - they were having so much fun. But then the smoke detectors started going off. The kids had a blast. They painted pillowcases. They all turned out really cute.

After that I tried to get them to watch a girly movie but it didn't work very well. At 3 am I was still yelling downstairs to tell them to be quiet. They were really pooped the next morning when their moms came. Carlee had a GREAT time at her slumber party!
