For Grants birthday I chose to do a ball theme, because Grant gets the biggest kick out of playing catch. So I thought I would go with that. The first thing we did was have the kids take turns going through a ball obstacle course. While the kids were going through the obstacle course the parent prepared their plate of food.
We had a pinata that we had already used once but revamped it again, so we could get our moneys worth. I had gotten too much candy for Grants pinata, so the rest of the candy I will use for Zach's birthday this coming week. Luckily one of my neighbors knows my weakness for candy and knew that in order to save the candy it needed to be at her house. (GOOD IDEA!)
Then it was cake time, and these beautiful cakes were made by none other than Marianne. Aren't they amazing? (Have you noticed that my neighbors are awesome and I ask for a lot of things?) Well Grant would not have anything to do with his cake. We tried several things. Even Zach was willing to help with the eating, but to no avail. We finally put him down on the ground with his cake. Then the magic happened, he got the biggest kick out of picking up his plate full of cake and tossing it on the ground. I don't think he ate a piece of his cake!
Then came the present time. He received wonderful gifts and loved to open up the presents with a lot of help from his buddies.
Happy Birthday Grantster, We love you!
