It's nice being back, I can take grandson to birthday parties when mom works on weekends and can't. Montessori parents have these really great birthday parties for the kids because the parents all go and have fun too! These folks live on the water and yeh, this is their back yard. I didn't ask them about Ivan. People want to forget. They had a 17 foot waterslide that the adults had a blast on as well. The kids went solid for 5 hours, then the adults joined in. There were great eats, and the little birthday Prince and Princess were celebrated in a bang up way. What a party. From the slide, I think there was one bloody nose, one bloody knee but no visits to the ER. The kids were having so much fun, they didn't let a little blood get in the way! At my grandson's party, a little guy ran out prematurely to get pinata candy and got whacked in the forehead. So, next year, what can we plan that will be fun for all ages, and safe as well? The little fellow coming down the slide with the snorkle mask on was my grandson. Five hours of water slide wearing a snorkle mask that covers your nose and you have to breathe with your mouth open? Ah, don't ask. I didn't.

That looks like SO much fun! I would have been all over that slide! LOL. Think I could get one for my birthday next week?
you should have had a go!!! yes yes yes you should!!!
WOW, you people throw some pretty ritzy birthday parties down there!
I want to come and visit and lay around on the beach reading magazines! I love Florida...do you read any novels set in Florida? One of my favourite writers...he's long gone and his books are kind of archaic...is John D. MacDonald...he wrote Travis McGee mysteries...
candy minx, come on down! We'd have sooooo much fun! Well, I read Jimmy Buffet's book! (tongue in cheek!) And one of my favorite writers about Florida was Jamie Buckingham - he did a lot a article writing. And of course Hemmingway - I have a longing to go to Key West, but would probably feel bad like when I first went to New Orleans and found commercialism instead of funky jazz and juke joints.
You know... I've never bashed a pinata. It's one of my life's ambitions, but it's just not the type of stuff we do here in Europe. Must come to Florida for the next birthday party you have and beat all the kids to it!
