Middleburg knows how to party!!!!!

Last Saturday we had our quarterly activity and talk about a fun time. We Partied! Becky our primary president came up with the idea of having a UN- Birthday party, celebrate, and have fun. The night before we all ( the presidency) met at the church to set up and I am not sure which day I had more fun. The 3 of us laughed so hard . It was perfect! Then Saturday morning we finished setting everything up and then closed the dividers. So when the kids came in there was nothing. Becky had sent individual invites in the mail and we had talked up the activity each Sunday at church. Then we said our hello's and prayers we had the men open up the doors to reveal the decorated birthday. They yelled and smiled and laughed . Next they ran got the party hats and noise makers and we began the party. First we played musical chairs.... Riley Shaw won in a close game. Then we played balloon pop, the spoon relay, the clothes relay( there was 4 pieces of clothing they had to each run put it all on do a jumping jack and take it off run back and tag there teammate), the Hokey Poky was next (the parents joined in and it was great), Last we pinned the missionary tag on sister O' Connor.( The tracing of sister O'Connor was the fun part from the night before with us Ladies) Then we ate cupcakes and ice cream. Our last surprise was treat bags as they left. The only bad news was that by the end of the party half of our balloons had floated to the top of the ceiling. Either way it was a great day!!!!!!   I think Primary is the best calling ever!

It sounds like so much fun! Seeing the pictures and reading about it makes me even sadder that we missed it :( But that just means that we'll be even more excited about the next activity :)
