Dora Party

Yesterday was Elese's first birthday party with her friends.

The party started with Steven reading the kids "Dora Birthday Dance Party: Daisy's Fiesta de Quinceaera". Just after he finished reading the story Swipper AKA Max stole the books and took them to Elese's party! Fortunately Elese's trusty backpack & map were close by. Map told us how to find the party. First we climbed the blue mountain and passed the red barn. Once we got to the rainforst we needed something to help keep us dry. Lucky for us backpack had an umbrella. After making it through the rain forest we made it to Elese's party where we danced the Mambo.



After our dance party Elese opened her presents. The first present she opened was from her friend Grace Egbert. Grace gave it to her and said, "I think it is a fish puzzle!" After Elese opened it and discovered that it was in fact a fish puzzle Sarah Peters said, "You were right Grace! How did you know?!" Following the gifts we had cake and ice cream. While we waited for the parents to come we played Dora, Dora, Swipper...better known as Duck, Duck, Goose.

For the sake of remembering, because I forgot to take a picture of all the kids together, here is a list of who came to Elese's first birthday party:

Grace Egbert
Sarah Peters
Logan, Noah & Violet Hale (and Uncle Spencer & Aunt DeAnn)
Ethan Perry & his cousin Breanna
Mommy, Daddy & Max
Grandma Hale
Grandma & Papa Heumann

Oh and PS...I bought balloons for the party and realized after the party that one of them said, "Happy Birthday, Birthday Boy!"...silly me.
