Summer Splash Party!


Gramma sent out invitations to all the grandkids for a Summer Splash Party on July 30th. My kids were SO excited--asking everyday if it was Wednesday because that's when Gramma said the party was! And, in typical Andrea Yount fashion, the party was AMAZING!! I'm telling you (as I've repeatedly told her) she should be a party planner/designer. She definately has a gift! Everything follows a theme and no detail is left out from start to finish. Her dinners, parties, showers, etc. are nothing short of WOW. The pool was full of "sea life" and there was a matching table full of rubber sea life and water-loving animals, the sandwiches and watermelon were cut in the shapes of dolphins and whales, the jello snacks were mini oceans-in-a-cup: crushed nilla wafers for "sand", then the blue jello "water" and cool whip for the "waves" where the gummy shark was jumping out! The tower of cupcakes were decorated like beach balls and ocean waves with fish jumping out of the tops! All the kids had splash-bomb animals and sunshines at their place-setting and each got to pick out a water gun for the water battle after lunch. Then they all relaxed at the end of a long, fun day to watch "Finding Nemo". Gramma topped it off by sending each kid home with a "bucket of fun" full of water goggles, candies, toys, themed washcloths, etc. What a great day!!
