Arnold's 4th Birthday Party!

Last week, Rachel organized a party to celebrate Arnold's 4th birthday! Arnold was SO excited! He got to wear a birthday hat AND a custom made birthday crown (made by his special Auntie Rachel)! We dressed him in a typical Ugandan "smart" outfit and he looked adorable! He was so proud the whole afternoon. Uncle Ian, his special uncle, organized an obstacle course that all the toddlers took turns racing through. The first leg of the obstacle course was Uncle Ian, Rachel, and I running and pulling them in a wagon, then they quickly got into a car and were pushed to the slide, they slid down, crawled through a tunnel, and ran across the finish line! They all had so much fun and it was great watching them run across the yard with big smiles on their faces! The party ended with ice cream sundaes for all the kids and mamas, complete with chocolate sauce and sprinkles! Arnold had SUCH a great day- he peed his pants, literally!!!
