Yup.  Since Alec likes Construction so much, we decided to have a Construction birthday party.  It was absolutely a fun way to celebrate.  We borrowed the office orange cones and tape them around with a 'caution' tape saying: "KID'S PARTY -- ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!" Everyone just loved it.  We played musical chairs and bobbed for apple which are the hits of the party.  Talking about hitting, we had a bulldozer piñata which entertained everyone-- even the parents.  Apparently not so many parents in Medan have piñatas for their children birthday party.  Alec had so much fun, he used his construction hat to hold all the piñata favors.  That's my boy, right there!  Instead of a clown, we had the balloon guy to come and blew up100 balloons for 20 bucks!  The kids were happy and I was happy with the price!  I am eternally grateful that the kids had a blast and easily entertained.
Happy 4th Birthday Alec!  We love you.
