Our "Backyard Bash"

Last night was our 2nd annual kid's party for charity. "Braden & Ethan's Backyard Bash" ended up being a great night of fun, friends, and a little bit of chaos. We had so much fun seeing many friends and it was adorable to see all of the kids running around playing. I told Chris last night I was amazed at how well all of the kids did together and how they used such good manners!! It was a blast and we collected a ton of books to give to kids in New Albany. We collected 102 to be exact. Braden, Ethan and I counted them today and enjoyed reading many of them before we deliver them them next week. Thank you SO much to everyone that came! We look forward to next year's bash. :)

I love the idea that you have a party for kids and they bring a donation for other kids. It is such a wonderful thing to do and such a wonderful example for your children.
