First official friend birthday bash!

My kids get their first friend birthday party when they turn 5 and then every other year after that. Carter has been looking forward to this day since Camden turned 5 almost two years ago. His choice in theme....if you know him at all you won't be surprised....construction. Everything and anything to do with trucks, tractors, building etc. He is a little builder waiting to sprout. Since his birthday is in Feb. I was getting a little anxious about the thought of all those little boys in my house. So I decided to get the church instead....what a great plan, it was much better having room to run around and be crazy.



We let them each build something with play-dough...









Then we had relay races to see how fast they could pick up and dump out blocks in their wheel-barrows...



We had a block building contest...

And finally a pinata....my boys favorite!

It was followed by cake and ice cream and presents.





We had great time and Carter loved every minute of it!

Such a brilliant plan to have their first party with friends at five, and every other year after that. Why didn't you share that jewel of an idea with me years ago!? I have been trying to figure out how I can get out of the trend I've started. Ugh.

Darling party for a darling boy. Can't believe your 2nd child is five. Seems like we just had Elle and Camden, doesn't it?

The Fun of the Chase

How many are we entertaining out there?
