We will piñata.

Hanging the piñata...

I love that they are old enough now that they can do this all by themselves!



RE-hanging the piñata!


After the second time it fell...
They just got to smashing it where it fell...


This is before we discovered a nest full of mini-ants, right there!

Pizza was done!

Once a month, we have a Mama-sleepover!

As always, there was much snacking...
