A Mynson Newman's party?

For the past few months Eden has talked about doing a Mynson Newman's party.  What that means...I have no idea.  She came up with the phrase a few months ago and then just never let it go, but she would always talk about the Mynson Newman's party we're going to have and how much fun it will be.  Well as the summer approached, Aaron and I decided that we should have a Mynson Newman's party, just for fun.  We waited until cousins came to town and then asked Eden to help us plan the party.  Her cousin, Jessie, spent the night and the next morning I took the two girls out shopping for game prizes and candy for the pinata.  I made some doughnuts and Aaron had a pinata that the jr. high kids had made in a Spanish class so we were set to go.  My sister came with her five kids and I had my three, so it was a party.  We played bean bag toss, then we ate a doughnut off a string, we did bowling, but the best of all was the snowman pinata in the middle of July!! It was a lot of fun, but who or what Mynson Newman is....I don't think we'll ever know.  But I like what Jessie said about it: it was a Mynson Human's party...you are the Mynson, and we are the Humans!  Whatever it means, I'm glad we had fun.
