Birthday Brainstorming

And...this photo is ridiculous. Yes, that's my tummy, decorated on Monday night to let my parents know via skype that we're expecting. I can say only that I was the artist in addition to being the canvas, and so maybe that can serve as some explanation for the quality of the oeuvre. Super-silly, but hey, what do you expect? In the spirit of silliness, I thought maybe those few of you who are reading could help us come up with some fun, close-to-home (or maybe even at-home) ideas for celebrating my birthday on Thursday. Suggestions can involve friends, but it may take a little doing to keep them in the dark as to why we're keeping it only local. But I trust your creativity. Post your thoughts in the comments section or e-mail me. Here's what's come to mind so far:

  • Game Night (requiring that we find board games)
  • Some kind of crafting event with an ultimate creative goal of some sort--might need your suggestions on that
  • Creating a beach/pool setup in our living room, which could be tricky without a hose
  • Some sort of murder mystery game? Might require more people than we know still in Paris. And I was thinking that we wouldn't be able to get the proper materials in time, but it turns out they have games you can download.
  • Puppet show? I don't know, I'm grasping here.
Looking forward to your input!
