Oogie Boogie!


We're getting ready for Connor's birthday party this Sunday. He is super excited--yesterday at Target, my typically bashful (to strangers, at least) young man enthusiastically informed our pharmacist that he was "havin' a monster birthday party!" When he's asked how old he's going to be, he will thrust out the "A-ok" sign, which is apparently easier than coaxing his index, middle and ring fingers to cooperate. Very cute.

His guest list is far healthier than the turnout we were expecting for a long weekend; I'm mighty glad Steve's parents agreed to come down for the afternoon and lend a hand. Today I bought a boatload of junk food (sorry, parents) and some table decorations. I hope it's as cute as what I'm picturing. Entertainment will feature several sprinkler toys (slip'n'slide included, naturally!), a small bounce house, a ball toss, and "make your own monster mask!" Aside from the traditional cake and ice cream, guests will have the opportunity to dine on dirt and worms and guzzle green and purple punch.
