Halloween Birthday Party

***Okay so I must start by giving you some background info. Before I had my twin boys I was a Program Coordinator for the Boys and Girls Club and before that, the YMCA. You name it, I came up with a program for it. From skating and swimming to camp outs and preschool crafts.

Ah, the joys of being a SAHM! All of my energy and experience is now devoted to my family! If the following seems a little overboard for a one year old party… can you blame me? I’ve been holding it all in for a year!!!!! LOL These pics are from October 24, 2008***
