Michael & Jackson's Carousel Party

Since Christmas is sandwiched between Michael (December 23) and Jackson's (December 26th) birthdays, it is much easier to celebrate at a different time. We had a super-fun morning at the local carousel where we rented the place for a couple of hours.

In lieu of gifts, the boys asked guest who were interested to give money to help the children who live and work in the dump in Ecuador. They were so excited to raise $303.60 to help!

We had plenty of donuts, coffee, and cocoa to keep us warm and full.

Santa stopped by for a visit. He handed out peppermint lollipops to the children and stayed for photos.

There were lots of laughs and giggles as the children took full advantage of two hours worth of free carousel rides. Though many might have been feeling ill by the end, only one actually tossed his donuts.










We had a great time celebrating our boys with family and friends. Thank you to all who came and enjoyed the festivities with us. And a big thank you for the donations that were given to help the children who live in the dump. It was precious to see our boys get excited about

giving their birthday presents to help other children.
