Birthday Recap

So this year I got to experience  the joy (pain) of  dealing with two kids' with birthdays 2 days apart. Between planning 2 birthday parties and Halloween, I am going to start dreading October. But now that it is over, I cannot believe how fast it all has flown by.

This year I really wanted Kaden to have a party with just his friends, not my friends and their kids. Though he loves my friends kids, we already did that with Gavin, and would be doing it for Zoey's b-day party too. We kept it pretty simple, and invited friends from school, boys only! Kade had been wanting to do the rock wall at the gym, so we opted to do his birthday party there, since now that he was 5, he was old enough to do the rock wall.

 His party was a Spiderman theme, but really, any superhero will do, so the boys opted for matching Superman shirts for the party!

Kaden with his friends, ready to get this party started!

 Some of the kids couldn't do the rock wall, so they opted for funn jump toys and the bounce house!

Kaden is all suited up and ready to go

 He loved it, and made it all the way to the top without any hesitation! ( I know this suprises you!)

Bounce house fun!

 Scooter races!!

 Only a few fingers were run over by the wheels...no fingers were lost, thankfully! 

 Pizza time!!!

I made spiderman cupcakes, and neglected to take pictures, of course!

His party went great, he had a great time and got lots of superhero toys from his friends. We did his b-day party early, so 3 days later, we celebrated his actual Birthday:

 Stuart Little - He asked for the movie after we read the book

 Thanking little brother for his superhero book and card game.

And finally.....Heely's! He's been asking for them for about 6 months. He's doing pretty good with them too!!

The following weekend, it was time celebrate our little Angel's b-day. It was a busy day...Kaden had his very first baseball game just 2 hours before her party (b-ball post to come soon) and it was still very warm outside!

 Time for cake! I made a flower cake for Z to dig into and cupcakes for the rest of the bunch!

 Getting a feel for the frosting....

 She likes it so far

 Yep, I think it is safe to say that Zoey is a sugarholic, just like the rest of the family!!!!

 Messy girl....she got that cake EVERYWHERE!

After, she got all cleaned up and vegged out with Dad. What a great day!!
