Jessica and Meagan Become Teenagers!!

On Friday the 13th Jessica and Meagan celebrated their 13th birthday. The day was a regular school day, and they were out the door by quarter to eight in the morning. When they came home the family came over to celebrate with them and then we went out to Hungry Jack's for dinner. All in all they had a relaxing day, with family and received some lovely gifts including some books, a shopping voucher (which we cashed in on Saturday and had a great time shopping for clothes and other girlie things) and a gorgeous necklace and bracelet set. So the girls are now officially teenagers, meaning we now have 4 teenagers in the house. Where has the time gone!!!

Monday was a student free day, and so they invited 6 friends each for a pink and purple party. They seem to mix in 2 quite different circle of friends which made it rather interesting. The party was from 11 til 4 and although at first I thought "help what have I done!! the time actually went by quickly and the 14 girls were kept well entertained the whole time.
The party girls are dressed up and ready for fun!

Meagan and Jessica blowing out their candles. Yeay, they're really teenagers!! Take note of the fancy cakes we even made. I was quite impressed!!
After prezzies and cakes the girls wanted to play 2 rounds of arrow hunt. Jessica's team went to hide first while Meagan and her friends painted finger nails and played a fuzzy bunny game where you had to keep stuffing marshmallows in your mouth until you could no longer say "fuzzy bunnies" It was pretty disgusting but kept the girls in stitches!!

Then Meagan's team went to hide while Jessica and her friends played some games.

They had a hard time finding Meagan's team which was good, it took up a lot of time!!! They came home once ready to give up but I sent them back out again and 20 minutes later they all finally came in, hot and ready for a swim so it was into the pool next!

The girls swam and played a few relay races before it was time to warm up again.

We did a few dances together like "the Hokey Pokey" ,"Chicken Dance" and the "Brown Jug Polka"

The girls also made a card and played a few more games like treasure hunt and the balloon stomping game before it was time to head home.
Another great party with lots of fun memories.
