While he baked and frosted and decorated, I worked on blowing up balloons. It took me three solid hours to blow up all these balloons. The picture doesn't do the volume of balloons justice. There really are about five times as many as what are shown, here.
We filled up three 50-gallon trash bags to the brink.
My lungs are now in good shape for Sunday but my fingers are blistered from all the knot ties. And yes, I definitely plan to compete in the triathlon. If for no other reason than to burn off a few hundred calories I'll surely ingest from consuming 15 leftover cupcakes that I'll eat with my elbows.
Happy 4th Birthday William, Elizabeth & Gracie!!
ReplyDeleteOy, that's a lot of balloons!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your munchkins! And happy 4th anniversary to you for bringing them into the world.
Oh, because I am your good friend, I will help you eat those cupcakes today... only because we're good friends, though.... hehehehe.... it will be worth the 2 hour drive!
ReplyDeleteHope you all have a wonderful time with the party. Happy, happy, happy birthday to the "amazing" crew!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, gang! And just say no to the cupcakes! They aren't worth the calories. Eat one. Only one. You'll like yourself more in the morning! =)
ReplyDeleteI hope the party was fun for all of you. Wishing you a terrific triathalon! Looking forward to hearing about it!

ReplyDeleteHow I wish I lived closer so I could help save you from all the extra cupcakes;) Good luck tomorrow, with all that extra exercise blowing up the balloons you should do great. Can't wait to hear all about it.
