a birthday party

Saturday our house was full of kids laughing, playing, eating and having a good time. The kids arrived about 11:30 and left around 1:30. The first part of the party was upstairs where the girls played dress-up and the boys played with legos. They also ran around on our huge terrace, played with moon sand and sidewalk chalk. Wow 22 kids was a lot of kids running around.
Okay so here are some of the things I put our for them to munch on. One of the parents said it was an American party because of the food that was there. Anyways we had hot dogs, mouton (goat) saug., chips, marshmallow treats, lots of candy, strawberries, bananas and pineapple, and more candy.
Then the second part of the party we went downstairs to the backyard and the kids played in the sand and grass. We ate the cupcakes down there too. A couple of the parents stayed and helped so that was so nice. The whole party was pretty much in French. I am still very surprised when I hear the kids playing in French. The other day Abby was trying t0 tell me something in French and I didn't understand her... her accent was so good it was hard.. ha
Today was a great day at church. The music was good and I think the sermon was too. You know - what I can get from it : )
I got a new pair of running shoes this weekend. I am looking forward to using them tomorrow.
Okay well it is almost birthday month for me. Yep it is in April. :)
I am really having a writing block so this is all for now.

I love yall and remember... the grass is not always greener on the other side (of the ocean) .... it is tan here... well the sand that is.
