Day 121 - Oakville - 4th December 2004
Another jammed packed weekend. Saturday started with Julians birthday party. This was programmed from 10:00am to 2:30pm. We ended up with 9 kids, including our 2 boys, Alex's boy Scott (visiting from UK) and another child (a friend of Sammy's) who we were sitting for the day.
We started out going to a local park down by the Lake. It was blowing a gale. 4 or 5 of the kids fell in the stream and soaking wet feet which were then in danger of being frost bitten. All of the kids got muddy. They loved climbing over the fallen logs perched across the stream.
We came back to the house and played various games including pass the parcel, musical statues, balloon stomping and Alka Seltzer rockets. Lunch was followed by origami and stone painting. Julian said it was his best party ever and most of the kids said the same thing. Julian received the most amazing presents including a full art painting kit, a set of Magnetix, a book, a game of scrabble and a Harry Potter Quidditch PC game. He was overjoyed. A state of being that he rarely experiences.
It was very exhausting for us but great fun for the kids.

I'm just wondering what an Alka-Seltzer rocket is or does? (Jenny D)
