These are the cupcakes we made. They were not too hard, but they were time consuming. The shark is made out of a twinkie. I must say, they were delicious! I would have liked the fish to be actually swimming, but you come convince my hard headed kid ANYthing and I will be impressed.
This is our sand - filled living room. Now you see why I say I will be still finding sand next year? 
That thing over in the corner covered in plastic is Jake's piano. He threatened endlessly that his piano better not get wet - It survived without being scathed one bit!
This is the guest room. It was wall to wall Pool! There is one sheet rocked wall in there that we covered in plastic.
Lizzie had a blast! She begged for an indoor beach party since her 6th birthday - we said "NO" for 10 months and finally relented. I do not regret it - it was fun! It would only work in a house of solid tile or stained concrete like we have. You really can't hurt our house - it is a perfect house for parties.

Oh what a cute idea, Michele. I love it.. I'm sure your kids enjoyed the indoor beach party. (Hope you had some help cleaning it up! ha ha)

You are a very patient woman!
The "Kool Aid Mom" in the flesh!

You are a fun & creative mother! And a patient one too! I love those cupcakes! I bet Lizzie will remember this party for the rest of her life!!
oh. my. gosh. you are officially the nicest mom EVER. i cannot imagine sand in my house... or a pool! certainly a forever memory for all!
This is completely awesome!
I thought I was lucky when I got to pass put Hawaiian leis at my birthday party as a kid.
Michele, I'm with Dawn...you deserve the nicest mom award. I was definately too up tight for such a sandy party! Sleepovers with 10 jabbering girls almost pushed me over the edge! I bet Lizzie is the most popular kid in school!
Friar - it was!
Betsy - We all pitched in and helped, but the sand keeps showing back up! I am vaccuming again today!
citizen - not always
Joyce - is there a monatary reward with that title??
Shelley - I hope she does!
Dawn - it was an adventure
Jen - can you say "rotten"? that is Lizzie! :)
Cassie - well a sleepover would have lasted longer! Well we homeschool, but she is pretty popular around here anyway!
Wow--what a cool mom you are! I bet your daughter and her friends had a blast! What a great party. :)
