{monkey extravaganza}

James Ryan had a lot of fun at his monkey bash. We went a little over board on the monkey theme:)

We had monkey centerpieces that were given as prizes to the winners of 'Pin the Banana on the Monkey'



We had great food paired with monkey wine....



and a fabulous monkey cake made by Aunt Laura.



By the time we sang, I think James Ryan was a little bewildered and tired becaue he missed his afternoon nap. He didn't really get into the cake, but don't worry, we have something fun planned for his real bday on the 6th.




Big thanks to everyone who came to the party, and especailly to everyone who was a huge help with the preparation, set up, clean up, etc. We really appreiciate it!!

James Ryan got so many wonderful gifts, he loves all of them:) Thanks again!
