1 small chocolate fountain
5 lbs of chocolate (the good kind)
strawberries, bananas, pineapple, cinnamon bears, marshmallows, rice krispie treats, cookies, pretzels etc.
about 15 women and their children (totaling at least 15 tiny bodies)
Makes good times during the priesthood session.
I didn't take an actual picture for fear of chasing everyone away - but at one point I sat back in the corner just to watch for a minute, and it was a thing of beauty.
Women involved in at least 5 different conversations, kids playing with each other and next to each other, toys everywhere, food everywhere else. I'm sure our neighbors wondered what was going on because the sheer volume of the event was something to behold.
Miraculously nobody got hurt, I didn't notice any meltdowns which means the volume of the happy children was higher than the volume of any sad children.
All visible signs point to a smashing success. Hopefully next time it will be at least as fun as this time.
my children both had meltdowns when it was time to leave. i'm serious, they were both bawling their heads off and whining to stay/pointing upstairs where the other children played (sadly without them). :)
