End of Summer Party

It started out as a "pool party" but due to the sudden cool weather Grace Waldo decided that a fun girls end of summer/beginning of fall party was just as fun! And it was!

First we all washed our hands with Nicole's homemade hand scrub. Then we headed out to the deck and dipped our hands in a special wax..our hands were so soft afterwards! Everybody brought their fingernail polish and started doing each others nails. (we had quite the collection of polish, I wish I would have gotten a picture of them all)

~Friends~


Trying to find their cherry in a bowl of whipped cream....for the sake the contestants I won't put pictures of what they looked like afterwards...*smile*
After some exciting games outside such as "Human Tic-tac-toe" and Volleyball we decided to come in and play a rousing game of Occupational Cherades!

Believe me it was very amusing!
(Ellie really doesn't have glasses..she was borrowing Grace's)

It was so funny to see what the first person did and what the last person ended up doing!
Thank you Grace for a wonderful party! I hope you had as much fun as we did: )

Love the pictures, Anna!! Looks like you had fun!!
Lydia (my older sister) got a tiny jar of hand scrub one time, and she was saving it for a special occasion. Then one day, we had a huge paint spill in our house and she and I both had our hands coated with paint and no turpentine to use to remove it. Then Lydia said maybe the hand scrub would work. So we scrubbed our hands, and sure enough, it took the paint off! She was sad she didn't get to use it for it's regular purpose, but at least we had clean hands!!
See you soon.
