About half-way through Saturday, I began to wonder if I am really a masochist and thought I might have left a bit too much to handle. Luckily Eric got home a hour sooner and saved me. So we were ready for the party to begin.
Lucas loves Legos, so I made him this
(more about this tomorrow)
And pinatas are always fun
Is the pinata ever going to open??
(and our lovely lawn)
Lourie getting the kids all ready
Yep-some of you might recognize this lady--
did you know that Lourie from CA Girl is my cousin-in-law
And Lucas' best cousin-buddy (as we call him) is her son Ryan
And of course there were the cakes
(Ryan's aunt made his cake)
Alex thoroughly enjoyed hers
but she also helped clean up
(her cheesy smile)
It was a great night,
the kids had fun,
the adults were able to socialize
and no one got hit by the the bat.
Happy Birthday Lucas and Ryan

Looks like a wonderful party. We once had a pinata that wouldn't bust and my ex-husband had to take a saw to. He tried to bust it first, but he was making little kids cry, so he switched to the saw.

ReplyDeleteIt's always a good time when no one gets hit with a bat. What a fun party! And I love that you celebrated it together! I have a cousin that is four days younger than me and I loved it when we celebrated out birthdays together. It was the best.
ReplyDeleteMy sons are obsessed with Legos. You have just given me the best idea for Jax's birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your brilliance.
Happy B-day to Lucas! I love the new look to your blog. I appreciated the tribute to your MIL; I am also lucky to have a terrific MIL and feel so sorry to hear about everyone else's horror stories. BTW, I've never seen it spelled "Melidee" before-- cool!
