Party Time in Doha


We had a fun weekend! Friday night was the Blackjack and Black tie Gala for the American School. It was fun getting dressed up and going out. There just aren't a lot of opportunities for this sort of thing around here, so people really seemed to take advantage of the night and enjoy it. There was a silent auction and a mini casino set up and dinner and dancing.



We bought a "Spiderman" birthday party for Will at the silent auction. It was so cute. I wish I had a picture. It came with all the decorations, goodie bags and goodies (including spiderman beach towels for all the kids), cake plates (2), spiderman mugs for all the kids, invitations, inflatable spideys (2) and more. The clincher for me was plates shaped like Spiderman's face (ceramic plates). They were just too cute! Will's b-day is in January and it is always tough for me to pull together a party, so this should make it easy.

Today, was the Pegasus club Christmas party for the kids. It was fun, fun , fun. Santa rode in on a camel and delivered gifts. Their were games, face painting, hot dogs, cookie decorating, popcorn and cotton candy. And inflatable bouncy things.







Look at Cole's expression after Santa asked if he had been a good boy.

Extreme bouncy slidin'





Just in case Gayla is reading this....here is a picture of your friends the Carnahans.



These two were just so stinkin' cute, I couldn't resist getting a photo of them.
