Flopsy and mopsy but no cottontail..phew!

We added new members to our family.I have promised my daughter She could get a bunny for Her birthday and so I contacted the rabbit advocates:rabbitadvocates.org/foster.html
They got back to me right away and within hours we had choices galore!
Great people. So We had to choose from a litter of 10.We did it but it was hard. Here they are,you can tell from their names We are big Beatrix Potter fans.
Mopsy I guess was the runt of the family so of course my future vet wanted Her!

BEACH PARTY

Carnival and Boardwalk ideas for great party fun!!!







Lots of bright colors buckets filled with 'Fish Food'.
(candy fish,popcorn,check mix).The kids loved it!


We also made the kids their own surf boards..cowabunga!


My recent adventures at a beach party included a Coney Island board walk.
It was great fun games included this pin the tail on the monkey that I copied from a Pottery barn website!

None of the items are available any more so I made my own.This is the second party I have used these props!

I also find with so many kids that a prize stand and tickets always works the best,the kids all join in the games more readily and love trading for gifts at the end of the party!
A large array of candy and toys and they stampede!!!
