We have survived the Scooby Doo party! In just over two hours, sixteen excited children consumed a whole lot of sugar, hunted for clues in the muddy garden (there was a good reason that the invitation strongly recommended gumboots), seriously smashed our beloved pinata, made a dent in the birthday cake, squeezed in some party games, and helped make Grace's party a huge success. At the end of the day, all that remained of the cake was the van from the top, which Grace still won't let anyone touch.
As for poor old Scooby Doo, at least all those hours of work took quite a bit of bashing before breaking.
Grace and I were both a bit sad to see him destroyed, but at least someone is still getting mileage from Scooby's remains....
