This is a picture of Kailee on her 11th birthday opening her new digital camera. It seemed like it was a week-long celebration since we had a small family party on her actual birthday and then another party 2 days later with a few of her friends.
Here's a picture of all of the girls after they decorated their t-shirts--I thought they all turned out cute. You can't really see the decorations very good in this picture, but the girls really liked them. The 2 girls on the ends are twins. Anyway, from left to right is Jessica, Whitney, Kiarra, Kailee, Kiera, and Samantha.
I found these foam pumpkins at Wal-Mart, so for one of the games, we blindfolded the girls and let them try to draw a jack-o-lantern with a permanent marker. Some of them were pretty funny. They only did one while blindfolded, but they wanted to go ahead and do all of them--I think they had about 5 each. Anyway, some of them are pretty good artists!!
This is another one of the games that we played--Gene came up with this one. But we tied a string that was about 18" long onto each balloon, and the girls had to 'eat' the string until the balloon touched their mouths. Some of them were kind of gagging. haha!
We didn't open presents until the end, but Kailee mostly got Pet Shops, and they were ALL different from the ones that she already has!! That's amazing considering she has about 90 of them now. :o) Kiera brought a really cute gift--you can see part of it in the picture. But it was a purple basket filled with all kinds of things for a movie night. It had a gift card to Hollywood Videos to rent a movie. Then there was some popcorn with the yummy Mallow Magic, a bottle of orange soda, 2 pairs of socks, a bunch of candy, an activity book, and I can't remember what else. But it was a really cute idea for a gift. I am sure Kailee will put more pictures of the party on her blog, so be sure and look there also. :o)
