Jackson's 6th Birthday Party

 

Jackson had 9 boys come to his party. He invited several kids from his Kindergarten class. My mister social child! I had to take a picture of this present the neighbor boy brought over! It looked like a giant piece of candy wrapped up! I told him that as he was walking across the street and he had the biggest grin. His mom told me Mason was thrilled when I said that because that's what he wanted it to look like!

We started off the party by making individual pizzas. Then we had an obstacle course in the back yard while they baked. For the obstacle course I gave Dustin instructions to blow up all the balloons and put them on the trampoline during the obstacle course. At the end of the races we had a trash sack full of blown up balloons that forgot to be put on tramp......so when I watched the video I just imagined the balloons bouncing around!

We ate our pizzas then opened presents...lots of star wars lego sets....Jackson was loving it.

 

Then the lego clone cake. The arms turned out a little short....McCall's cake was definitely more fun to make! This one wasn't too bad. I had fun making it.

CHASE - school friend

RYAN - school friend

BRANDON - school friend

TALON - Church, former preschool

LANCE - church

MASON - neighbor, church, kindergarten class
Jackson has been wanting a pillow pet and Mason remembered him saying this. So he got him a knock off version of the "As Seen on TV" pillow pets. I saw them at Costco after Jackson's party so I took his lamb and traded it for a bunny. Jackson loves bunnies right now so he was very excited!

AUSTIN - Lance and Cynthia were out of town and we invited Austin over, staying at Goff's, to Jackson's party and to stay Friday night! Austin felt bad he had no gift so he gave him the change that was in his wallet and a candy! So cute!

HUNTER - school friend

RIPLEY - neighbor, kindergarten class, church

McCall's 4th Birthday

 All the girls just arriving.

 The doll house game. They had 2 minutes to set up the doll house how they wanted it to look each taking turns.

 The party was a success. We made mini pizzas then while they were cooking we played the doll house game (I made up the game that morning). Then we eat our pizza, opened presents, and ate cake!


 

The cake was so beautiful. McCall is dancing with her.

When I cut the whole in the center for the torso I cut too deep and had to reinforce with gummy bears. So when I pulled out the doll gummy bears fell out. What a surprise! Some girls ate the gummy bears and some thought that was gross.

Dustin was even there via Skype! Zayie slept through half of the party then came and joined the fun.

This Johnny Jumper was given to me by Brandy years ago and I'm sure it when through a lot or not all of her kids. It's been through 3 of mine now! Holds up well.

The night before McCall's b-day

Getting the final touches on the cake for McCall's big 4!

The sprinkles are very thin shaved edible hearts. The cake baked from scratch. The frosting homemade butter cream! I can't wait to eat it tomorrow! The boys were suprised her party was without them! They will be at school :(

McCall's family party at Red Robin

 Dustin had to leave town for work so we took McCall to Red Robin for family night and celebrated her birthday prior to Dustin leaving on Wedn.

Jackson and McCall had free kids meals. Jackson got his at school from the principal and McCall's was for her birthday.

Andrew's 8th Birthday Party

Andrew wanted a friend birthday apart from his family party over the weekend so we threw him a last minute party on a Monday with a 5 day notice. He invited some old school friends and some new school friends. We palyed Minute To Win It games. Candy Elevator, Loner, Noodling Around, Face the Cookie, and Defying Gravity. No one was able to get Candy Elevator -

Tie two pencils together with string leaving several feet of string free. Put three m&m's on the pencils. Place string over ears and use hands to pull strings lifting pencils up to face. If m&m falls off put back on and try again. You have one minute.

The favorite game was Face the Cookie. Place a cookie on your forehead and use only your facial muscle to get the cookie to your mouth!

Andrew wanted a lego cake. He must have really like Jackson's from two years ago!

Sierra's 4th B-day

Sierra Hilton turns 4!

Jackson's 5th Birthday Party

Jackson turns 5 and has a birthday party with most of his preschool friends. He had a Darth Vader-Luke Skywalker cake.

I made up pizza dough and the kids got to create their own mini pizza's. While the pizza's baked they had an obsticle course in the backyard that Jackson set up. We timed them and they won prizes for the fastest times. They won candies, little swuirt guns, harmonicas, jumping frogs... Then they came in and eat their pizza on starwars 3D plates. Jackson loved all his presents especially the one from Lance (pictured below) his preschool friend. Jackson had been saving up his Blad bucks for the Blad store to purchase this power minor lego set, so when Jackson opened up this present, the power minor lego set, his eyes got real big. He was very excited.

Jackson envited 6 friends to his party. Parker, Gavin, Emry, Sadie, McCall, Talon, Lance, Jackson, Andrew

McCall's 3rd Birthday

McCall's 3rd Birthday! We had a princess party with lots of pink princess things.

Oh, a purse with a princess domino set!

What, a doll house? Awesome. Our old neighbors gave us all their old toys. Their girls have grown out of them. I saved the doll house for McCall's birthday!

Andrew's 7th Birthday

Lego's were the hit of the party. Lego's have been so good for my boys. Hours of entertainment.

This is a cake from pieces of my birthday cake. I made the racket into a race track and part of the court into a race car! Brilliant!

Andrew had his neighbors and classmates and church friends to his party. Elliot, Jared, Scott, Evan, Andrew, Steven, Jackson and McCall

They played this race car game that they played last year.
