Party Time!

May 25, 2013 

The boys really wanted a Halo cake.

After searching Pinterest for ideas, I went to the store and found this Halo Warthog set and yesterday I made their cake.  The boys hadn't seen the decorations ahead of time, so they were super excited when I unveiled the decorations.

Kaden said it's the best cake he's ever had!

So I guess I succeeded!

 The cake with candles: Our boys are 10, 6 and 4 now!

Fun fact about their new ages:

Versii pointed out that 6+4=10, smart kiddo!

The boys, with their neighbors and close friends having a marshmallow war.  (Kaden's idea)

 And having a race trying to keep their "yoshi eggs" on a spoon.

 Seeing who can keep their balloon in the air the longest.

 Cake!

 Pinata time! 

When I first asked Versii what he wanted for his birthday, he said he wanted a pinata, a cake everyone could share and his favorite Popsicles. We had all three, but we never did get out the otter pops.

Everyone had a chance to hit the pinata...

 ...And in the end, we let Kaden have the last few swings to finish it off!

 All their friends who attended the party, minus Hal.

These too are so alike, they are "peas in a pod"

Thanks so much Megan and Erika!

 After the party, these two sat down to play video games.  I asked Versii to smile...this is all I got.

 To explain his crazy faces he said, "I'm scared of the flash!"

The boys had a great time celebrating with some of their closest friends!  Thanks to everyone who came out to their party!
