Weekend Recap 4

This weekend was a blast! I love long weekends when we get to spend a ton of time together. We started with a fantastic play date on Wednesday.


               
                     H and I made Mermaid Pie for our guests. All of her friends enjoyed it, and she was a very proud little chef. It is pistachio pudding in a pre-made pie crust, topped with cool whip, and marshmallows. Then she added some silver sprinkles so it would "farkle."


The night before H helped me and the Hubby fill balloons with water and stuff little dinosaurs in them. We placed them in the freezer over night so they would be solid. 



 When our guests arrived we took them all out, cut the balloons off and were left with dinosaur eggs!        The kids had a blast cracking them open outside in the girls water table! It was such a great distraction for them from the summer heat.

                                                                                                               
 While the kids played the moms and I sampled somePink Papaya Products. We gave ourselves pedicures in a bag, one of the things I do at parties. H decided she wanted one too!

 Friday, we celebrated M's first 4th of July. It is not the same celebrating it over here in Germany, and it really makes me homesick, but we made it fun for the girls as best as we could. We first wen't to the festival the base was having.


H rode rides, got her face painted, and all of us enjoyed some carnival food! After, the fair we went home and snuggled together in our room watching movies. We missed the fireworks this year since both girls slept and we did not want to wake them to go back to base.  

Saturday we went to a local medieval festival. Unfortunately, it rained the whole time we where there but we all still had fun. We even got the blacksmith to make some nails that we will be using on our kitchen table!

 Ended our long weekend with a trip to the park on Sunday. While M was in the swing for the first time  I noticed her first tooth is popping out.  She is getting so big and I just want her to stay my little baby! Hope you all had great weekends too! Would love to hear how you all spent them!
