Luckily I had spent some time decorating our family room. I just didn't trust the weather folk who kept telling us it would clear (which it did, 20 minutes after everyone left). The bottom half of the walls were covered in craft paper so the kids could draw fishy things and sign their names.
With kids everywhere, getting a good picture was hard. And since I didn't get parental permissions to plaster their kids' faces all over the internet, you'll have to make do with backside shots and the occasional mug from kidster #1, the birthday boy.We made fishing poles out of shovels, went fishing, 
and used the fish we caught to "stick the fish in the ocean".
and used the fish we caught to "stick the fish in the ocean". I made flippers for each of them (how do you like the fish on my head? Ha!)
and then goggles and snorkels rounded out the attire. 
It was supposed to be a scavenger hunt, but I didn't want kids all over the house so I sort of just handed everything out. (Bummer.) We swam like our favorite fish and had a few other swimmingly fun games before cake and presents.
