I'm a Superstar! Well, maybe just a back-up singer...

Part-ay! Put your hands up! Part-ay!

We had a great time today at the get-together. The weather was gorgeous, so the children enjoyed themselves hugely outdoors while the mommas enjoyed themselves hugely indoors. We had the Chocolate Mouse Cake with fresh whipped cream, which was big hit (thank you Sarah for helping me make it), cookies, chips with Queso dip, pretzels with dip, and coffee. These things alone would've made the afternoon go by pleasantly, but then Angie Wilkes showed up with her PlayStation 2 with SingStar. Holy Cats. This is a very fun game. Of course, I must pay homage to Paige Mitchell, because she totally kicked butt. The premise of the game is to choose a song you want to sing to (my favorite were the '80's choices), and then you and another player sing the song "against" each other. Whoever matches the pitches most correctly is the Superstar. Fun, fun, FUN.

Anyway, thanks to everybody for coming (and we had quite a crowd) and we'll have to do it again before the big move (and before it gets too hot!).

Aww, sounds like so much fun! Wish I lived close enough to join the fun!

Forget to hot...the children will play outside at any temperature as long as they are together.

We have kareoke on the xbox and it is most fun!

Next time I'm throwing down some old school Madonna. I'm thinking "Crazy for you" is my song.....But I'm not singing with someone from choir! I need someone who can "blow out the windows" just as well as I can. O, and next time I'm bringing wine. Keep your table tops clear of clutter, my dear!
