Cinco De Mayo

I've been quite the slacker on this blog, so sorry this is a couple weeks out of date (This is for you Rachelle! ;))

The last weekend of school we had an awesome Cinco De Mayo Party. We decided to make one rather than spend $20 for a crappy one at Walmart. The only problem was I decided to start making it the night before the party . . .

Here we have Connor and Steph decorating it

After filling it with candy it was still weak on the inside in a couple of places, so I tried to tape the inside to fix it, hahaha

We also tried to get it to dry faster by baking it

Fail. After we put everything in it it started ripping so it got duct taped.

Mitch always leaves presents on my camera for me

To fully celebrate the holiday we decided we needed mustaches, and much fun was had with them :)





 Inside the pinata was much more than candy - there were whistles (a horrible idea), Twinkies, army men, a rubber duck, and mini water guns. We were all pretty wet after the water gun war.

After the pinata we watched Nacho Libre (Stacy loved sitting in between Mitch and Connor), and then we attempted to watch the meteor shower, but failed at that because of the clouds.

Overall it was a super fun weekend, and a great way to end the school year before everyone left for the summer.
