Happy Birthday!

I can't believe my little boy has turned 4 already! It seems like just yesterday that I was in the hospital having the little guy. Here's a little look back at the tiny little guy, 4 years ago...

hard to believe he was only 4lb 15 oz... he looks a lot bigger in this picture

having my hand in front of him helps to show how tiny he really was when he was first born. Not too bad for being 5 weeks early.

For his birthday this year he wanted to go to Funtime Inflatables so he could jump around and play with all his cousins and friends.

In this inflatable there were giant boxing gloves that the kids could put on and box each other. It was really hard to get them to stand still for a picture.

Again, it was tough to get pictures of them standing still so I gave up on trying to get pictures there.

Party Time!

he picked out a Star Wars theme for his party this year, here he is with his Star Wars cake

Some new boots!

another light saber, but this one lights up and makes noise

some new hot wheels and a semi truck carrier for them

He has been wanting this "toy" for months now! Its a covered wagon with two horses pulling it. We still aren't exactly sure why he wanted it so bad, but he did so we go it for him. Later he said this was his favorite toy he got for his birthday.

more Hot Wheels!!

$5!!! WOOHOO

more Star Wars toys! Yoda and Obi Won!

he doesn't look as excited about $20, guess he doesn't understand $$ yet.... he took his birthday money and went and got another Star Wars toys

PINATA!!

I decided to try my hand at making a pinata for the birthday party. It didn't turn out too bad. We painted it black and put a Darth Vader mask on it and let the kids go to town on it.

Chris' turn.... we had to keep telling the kids to stay back

Scotty's turn

now Tristan

George finally broke the pinata... I'd say it did good... made it to the oldest and biggest kid before it broke

Baby Ashley is just too cute

Most of the kids from the party

Bryce & Rachel (extended cousins), Lainey & Lexie (cousins), Chris, Tristan & George (cousins), Scotty & Ashley (cousins).

Chris had a great time at his Birthday party. He told me that he had fun, and that he was so glad Scotty could be there. As you can tell Scotty is definitely his favorite cousin. However, I'm pretty sure he had a great time with everyone. Thanks every one for making his party so much FUN!
