Charlie's party

We had a good old fashioned birthday party in our backyard to fete Charlie.

Look at the babes who showed up! He's already a chick magnet!

Nana spent a lot of time lugging Henry around. Pretty cute couple!

Look at the gleam in his eyes as he approaches poor unsuspecting Nemo. I must say the children really got into beating the tar out of the poor guy. Oh, and a word to the wise-- don't be a smartass and try to recycle your pinata from one year to the next. Once a clown fish has had its ass beaten with a stick the first time it's not giving you anymore. I attempted to save myself $15 and reuse the pinata from Charlie's party last year. A little Scotch tape here, a little there -- the guy looked as good as new but structurally he was not so good. He was spewing candy by the time the 3rd child got to him. We had to slap a bunch more tape on it and continue. That pinata making/selling biz is a good racket... maybe it's time for a job change for Jim.
