Yesterday got a little hectic, as often happens when working with chimps, so we decided to postpone our Fourth of July Celebration until today. Brandon Wood (check out his blog!), our amazing 9-year-old supporter, sponsored our party in honor of supporter Theresa Strunk’s birthday (surprise, Theresa!). He sent this awesome box of goodies for the party.
We feel horrible we couldn’t do the party on her actual birthday, but hopefully we’re making up for it now! It was a great party!
For the forage, we set out blue cups filled with red Gatorade and soy milk (red, white, and blue!)
And Brandon found this awesome Elmo pinata, which we filled with cherries and nuts!
…which Jamie, of course, thoroughly enjoyed!
But Jody managed to steal a few of the last bites. 🙂
Brandon also sent several Kong toys, which I filled with peanut butter. Annie LOVED it!
Thanks again, Brandon! And Happy (belated) Birthday, Theresa!! 🙂
