Matilda's birthday

Last weekend we went to Matilda's birthday party. Matilda is one of Sofia's friends from school. Sofia was excited to see her friend since she hasn't seen her since the last day of school. She was also excited to be at someone's house. We drove out to Statenice, which is a village just outside Prague where Matilda lives. It was nice again to have a car since otherwise we would have taken a taxi there. There are busses but on the weekend they are few and far between. Their house was beautiful but I was particularly envious of their yard. They had a nice sized yard with an inground pool. The yard was beautifully landscaped and well maintained. I thoroughly enjoyed taking my shoes off and walking barefoot in the grass. The girls had a blast at the party. They went swimming, went in a bouncey castle, bounced on the trampoline, and played in the giant doll house. In between playing with all those things they had cake and had fun with the pinata. The time flew by and before we knew it it was time to go.
