Party Recap

Thank you friends for all the birthday wishes for my nephew! It was a beautiful day and J4 really went all out, so I thought I post a quick party recap so you could share in some of the fun...

He's obsessed with Mario and that was the theme of the day! (Along with Spiderman.)

Good old fashioned tug-of-war was a hit! I guess some things just can't be improved upon.

The Spiderman moonwalk was also a big deal. My nephew, however was not thrilled, and did not join in on this one...I think the big Spiderman torso at the top freaked him out.

Pinatas are just way too much fun and there wasn't just one, but 2!

The cake was my favorite! It had a picture of the birthday boy in his Mario costume on it. (This was also the picture on the invite.)

Wish I could share a piece with all of you!

Here's What I'll Be Doing This Weekend...

It's a birthday party!

My nephew turned 5 this week and the party is tomorrow. J4 and I went shopping with him at Party City...sounds fun, and the photos look like it was fun, but he had just had his first cavity filled and he was actually very moody. Oh well. The fun bright colors totally made me happy!

Kazoos! I'm always the one who wants to buy the loud silly, drive-Mom-crazy favors. J4, being Mom, was having none of that. She would have killed me if I'd gotten him the Band In A Box! (He's getting a camera instead.)

"Now I'm Cash!"
That's what he told me when he put these sunglasses on. Yeah.

Oh, to be 5 again! He was done with all his "cool" poses and was onto his silly faces.

He doesn't know that his grandma will be arriving from Wisconsin today for his birthday...he will be so excited!

That being said, I've got housework to do before Mom gets here!
