We celebrated Jack's birthday last Saturday. We had twelve kids between the ages of 2and 6 with us (that is the nature of Oak Hill). We had a great time, but needless to say were exhausted by the end. Charles's comment was that all my work was beforehand and all his was during the party which I admit there was some truth to since he was in charge of all the games that I had planned. He did an excellent job. It was also super fun because Aunt Rebekah and Aunt Karen (Charles's two sisters) were able to join us.
One funny aside was that I bought candles called Magic Candles which I noticed were 10p more than the other ones, but they had nice stripes so I went for them. Only to find out when Jack was blowing out the candles that they are what American would call trick candles. Here are some pictures and videos to record the event.

I was afraid he was going to hyperventilate blowing out the candles. I think the game should have been called Duck Duck Geese---I never saw so many little people running around at one time. As usual, your blog made me laugh. Good job on the cake and cookies/
It was definitely a great party. I really enjoyed being there. And I think I'm going to hire Charles to run my kids' parties in the future...it was hilarious to see him dancing around with the kids. :D
Happy 4th birthday Jack!! The duck duck goose video is PRICELESS! So, so very funny. And great drum set cake, Erin!
After watching a few times, I realized that Theo is one of the random runners. Another example of imitating big brother. I think Theo has a future in track.
