Natalie's 9th Birthday Party

Natalie wanted an "art party" and sleepover for her birthday, and I aim to please. So we had some of her friends and their families over for pizza and painting last night. Then the girls stayed over for a slumber party. They stayed up until 2am. Then at 5am, I got woken up by Erica. Then we were all back up at 7am. I was so tired today. I am way too old for this! haha I did go back to sleep for a few hours after the festivities were over. Natalie had a blast, which made it all worth it.

Dana, Ashton, Abigail and Natalie watching the first movie of the night. When it was over, we had a midnight snack of leftover pizza. Then we watched another movie. Only 1 girl fell asleep during that movie. Finally at 2am, I told them they HAD to stop talking and GO TO SLEEP. :) And they did.

We are very tolerant in this house.
