Today was Sydney's friend William's 2nd birthday. His Mom and Dad threw him a fantastic party at the Douglas Park Community Centre. They had the team from Sportball BC come and do an hour of structured activities with the kids.
The kids had a fabulous time playing soccer, running and jumping and playing with hula hoops. It was so fun to see Sydney try some new activities for the first time today, we will have to sign her up for the Sportball weekly activity in the future!
William loves trucks and so his Mom, Michelle, not only carried the ball theme throughout the party but she incorporated all things transport related for her little man. Check out this amazing cake that she made for him with no formal training at all! What talent!
The kids had such fun today, it was really nice for all of the Dunbar gang to be together and enjoying each other's company.
Michelle sent each child home with a hand stamped, individualized loot bag filled with a balls, Sydney got a pink football which was most popular! She also got a little Tonka truck, some stickers and some painting pages all tied together with a helium balloon to take home! I, of course, didn't make it out of the parking lot without accidentally letting go of Sydney's balloon...I have the worst luck with helium balloons lately. Poor Syd has been in tears three times in the past two weeks as I've accidentally let them go or they've sailed out the open sunroof of our car! So sad!
Today was such a beautiful day, the sun was shining and we were out and about in capris with no socks and jackets, I loved it! We took a trip to the garden centre at the Home Depot today and picked up some new boxwood trees to plan in some planters in our backyard along with some river rock to cover the bed that they sit in. It looks so fantastic! Paul painstakingly worked this afternoon along with Sydney and I to get it all together and the end result was so beautiful and neat and clean. I love that when I look out over the backyard while I'm doing dishes that this is now my view!
So all in all a great day and a wonderful way to start our weekend. Looking forward to a great Sunday with my family!
