Witch, Witch, Wizard

On Friday night when I came home from work there was an invitation from Abby to join her in her room at 6:30 that night for a Wizard party. It said to come dressed up.

When we entered, she had planned a really elaborate party agenda. Some of the highlights:

  • Witch, Witch, Wizard - the Wizard version of Duck, Duck, Goose. Maddie and Abby could have played all night...Mel and I were good for a couple of rounds before we go very dizzy and tired from running in very small circles.
  • Pin the bristles on the broom - Abby had drawn a very cute witch on a stick, and had cut out the bristles and we had to do our best to pin them on the broom. Whoever was closet won (Maddie, good job).
  • Treasure hunt - Abby had drawn and hid different things from the world of wizards and hid them throughout her room for us to find.

It was the best party that I can remember, and I loved that she took the initiative and had the creativity to pull it off. I was really, really proud of her and thought in general how very lucky I am to have such amazing girls. I'm the luckiest Dad in the world.

The cute part was too that she had written out an agenda for the party, made a hat and a wand out of the paper towel roll she found in recycling, and required us to dress up!
