Carnival Birthday Party

Last week, the day before Blackberry Days, Erica and Davey put on an adorable carnival birthday party for their twins, Eli and Kate, who are turning two.  They enlisted the older cousins to run the booths, and Liz dressed up as a clown (who knew she had a balloon twisting talent?)
  


Elise is at the snack table where guests were encouraged to make a face out of food.

Tennie's face painting booth was a huge hit.  Who knew she was such a gifted make-up artist!

Adele ran the pin-the-nose-on-the-clown booth.

Bailey ran the water shooting game.

Little guests could dig in the sand for a prize.

Ceci took pictures at the photo booth.

This one of Lucie is my favorite.


Em was trying to coax Zoey and Tate into dressing up, but she is the true star of the booth...

Davey's sister's kids put on a puppet theater.


Davey did a clown act at the end of the party.  He started with some juggling...



He then gave a demonstration of how to walk past/over a banana peel without slipping, only he wasn't successful.  His first fall came as a surprise and I didn't get a picture of it, and too bad because it was award-winning!  But I got a few of the subsequent falls.




Kids and adults alike laughed out loud.  We think he should take the act on the road.


Adorable kids with adorable parents

Taeya managed the penny toss booth.







Happy Birthday Eli and Kate!
