Henry's Birthday Party!

About two hours before Henry's birthday party, the sky looked like this...


Yikes, right??  Especially since we'd planned to have a "water slide party," that tornado-looking black cloud was NOOOoooo good.  


But we just thought happy thoughts and pressed on with our party-prep.... like making these cute cupcakes!


And getting dressed in our new "water-party-themed" outfit!


Big Wave!
Or maybe "Big Storm!"  might've been a
more fitting t-shirt banner.

5 looks good on him!

Before the guests arrived...

Here are most of the friends...

A few more showed up after picture time.

Silly faces :)

Silly Nicolas starting the lunch line!

Finally the two girls get some GIRL TIME!
Fortunately for us adults :) the sun came out and the slide went up!!

T-R-O-U-B-L-E!
Although, I have to give him credit....
he completely entertained himself in this spot
for the ENTIRE party!
 Cortney and Jeff let us borrow their water slide.... the kids all had a blast!  And were happy going up and down all afternoon.










Clayton, Brittany and Beth
checking out the slide action!
(I'm bummed we missed Cortney for the pic!)

Cupcake and ice cream time!

Singing "Happy Birthday"

Unfortunately it's blurry...
but it's Cort and Jeff nonetheless!

The Dads!
aka: The Official Water Slide Referees!
And not 5 minutes after Jeff, Cort and the kids went home, this happened...



Thank you, sweet friends, for making Henry's 5th birthday so very special.  We love you like family!

About Me

My photo
I am a stay-at-home mom to 3 energetic, funny, sweet, and crazy boys. I married my best friend, Chris, and love our life together. The Army is sending him overseas soon so I thought this blog would be a great way for him (and the grandparents!) to keep up with our hectic life. Unfortunately the Army keeps us too far from family and most of our friends so hopefully this will help us stay connected.
