Aubrey and Hannah's County Fair

Once again Aubrey got to share a birthday party with her best friend Hannah.  They had so much fun planning their party and I think their ideas changed about 10 times before they settled on County Fair.  Emily and I had fun coming up with games to play and Greg even built a Plinko board (I think that was the favorite of the party).  We had tug-of-war, balloon stomp (FYI-don't try this if the grass is dry, the balloons pop very easily!), face painting, bobbing for apples, Plinko, ring toss, penny toss, weight guess and knock over the bottles.  We let the girls have free reign of the games and it worked really well.  It was fun to see their personalities come out in the race for tickets with a special prize being awarded to the top 3 ticket earners.



Tug of war-both teams really got into it!

I love Aubrey's face here, she's so excited!

Emily found this idea online, isn't it so cute!  It really looked like popcorn
