12th Birthday

Megan and Jason turned 12 on July 23.  We were not able to have their birthday parties on the same day, due to their friends not being available on the same day.  Jason had his party first.  He chose to go Miniature golfing and Go-Kart riding with his friend Trevor. 

We put candy inside and wrapped a heavy duty box with paper to be used as a piñata.  We wanted to see how many hits it would take before it broke open.  They had to hit it pretty hard several times before it broke apart.  Once it did finally break, candy flew out all over the place.  Jason also didn't want a regular cake, but instead a cookie and fudge ice cream dessert for his cake. 

Kora rode with Jesse in the double Go-Kart.  She always wanted to go faster.

Megan had her friend, Leandra over to our house a few days later for her party.  I surprised her with a Roblox cake.  Megan chose to go swimming at an outdoor pool.  We also did the piñata again, but we did a better job of keeping the candy from breaking out of the bags after it got broken open. 

Kora couldn't resist helping to blow out the candles.
