Cicily had her Wish Party last night and it was awesome!!! I know, you'd think that a dream vacation to DisneyWorld would be enough to grant the wish of a 5 year old, but not for MakeAWish! It was a lovely night where Cicily got to share the excitement of her upcoming wish with people she loves. And since she won't get to have a wedding party or a sweet 16 party, we soaked this party up.
The absolute highlight of the night was Jungle Jill!!!! She agreed to donate a show just for Cicily's party. Jungle Jill brought 10 animals that Cicily chose from her website: www.junglejill.com to share with us. She taught the kids some fun facts about each animal, let them pet the safe ones, and took their picture holding an animal of their choice. Her show was funny and educational! If anyone in our area ever needs great party entertainment, I HIGHLY recommend Jill! She had 20 kids and even more adults entertained and enthralled for over 30 minutes. And most importantly she is a genuinely kind person.
Cicily loves this animal - her own stuffed Jungle Jill bear with her name on it.
Feeding the pygmy goat.
Maya got to take the tiny tortoise around for everyone to pet. Jill also had a teeny tortoise- about 6 months old and maybe 1 1/2 inches long - so cool!
The monitor lizard. Jill asked Cis if she'd like it to give her a kiss. I think it was Cis' only negative response of the whole night. :)
I love these boys' expressions! Jill knew they'd appreciate a monitor lizard tail in their face for a thrill!
Sophie petting the sugar baby - so cute!!
Cicily loved petting all the animals that came around. This is a lion-haired bunny.
At the end of the show our family got to send off 3 white homing pigeons. It was really cool! I'm afraid though that Cis and I weren't too great at starting our little guy off. We didn't toss him high enough and he flew into the ramada - really hoping he makes it home!
Thank you wish granters for pulling off a great party!!! And a huge thanks to Jungle Jill for giving us such a great show to remember.
