Painted face

We went to a birthday party on Saturday for Seb's friend Liam. The kids ran foot races, hit a piñata filled with candy*, played on the jungle gym, ate jello and cake, and painted each other's faces. Penelope managed to decorate both of our children.

*On Sunday morning, I came out of our room at 6:30 and asked Steve where the kids were. "In their room, playing really nicely together" he answered. We were touched. How sweet! They were so good, so quiet, so cooperative.  And then we opened the door and looked in, and lo.... they had been eating all of the candy from Seb's goody bag.  There was an enormous pile of wrappers under the bed. Nothing like sugar and chocolate for breakfast! No wonder they were so good and quiet!  What a disaster.
