A Costume Party and a Timely Gift

Joy hosted a costume party for Daniel and Anna today (nothing against Todd; he was just too young to be interested in it).


Joy was a fairy, Daniel was a magician, and Anna was a pink princess.  Even their toys dressed up--Purple Princess was a pixie, Liz the Lizard's tail was a red light saber, and Tourmaline the Snake was a shark (his costume was made of sofa pillows--he was a pretty big shark).


Among other things, Joy let each party guest take a turn playing the little computer game she coded. 


In the middle of the party, the mailwoman delivered a package from Red Grandma.  It contained glow sticks, patriotic T-shirts for the kids to wear on July 4th, and . . .


. . . red, white, and blue Skittles!  Perfect party food. :)
