Roar I'm 4

My Nephew is 4!!
He's not a baby anymore as he told me when I called him Baby Luke :( He's a "Big Boy"
He wanted a Dinosaur party with decorations, cupcakes, & his neighbors (any other Daniel Tiger fans out there?)
His mommy & Aunt Jen made such cute decorations for him!
I made a Dinosaur egg cheeseball :) Use your favorite cheeseball recipe & form it into an egg instead of a ball, then cover it in whipped cream cheese & surround it in pretzel sticks to make a nest! The nest was my sister's idea, it definitely made the cheeseball complete!
They had a dino dig! Plastic dinosaurs, 150lbs of sand, rocks, & digging tools :)
Roar!
They also used paint brushes to brush the sand off their discoveries.
And a magnifying glass to get a better look.
Next they made lava!
A pan of baking soda with dinosaurs and trees, a cup of vinegar with red food coloring, and a dropper to add the vinegar to the pan. The vinegar makes the baking soda bubble up into lava around the dinosaurs!
Or you can pour the whole cup in :)
Hungry Dinosaur
You could use this to throw beanbags in, or you can take pictures with it ;)
The sleepy dinosaur :)
He was very excited about the birthday song!
Happy family!
Yum!
There were paper mache dino eggs for the kids!
With bubbles, fossil stickers, and glowsticks inside!
Present time! His cousin wrapped up a hat he left at her house ;)
Walkie-Talkies!
Transformers!
Legos!
A Dancing Dinosaur card!
And a kit to make a googly-eyed car! Him & Uncle Patrick opened this one & got to work!
He had such a great time at his Dinosaur party! Luke, I know you are no longer a baby! I have really enjoyed watching you grow up! We love you very much!!!

Niece is 2!

Last weekend my sweet niece turned 2!
She had a Minnie & Mickey themed birthday party! So I made a Mickey Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheeseball :)
The cupcakes had mini oreo ears!
A Hot Diggity Dog Bar!
Party favors & Photo Booth props! My sisters did such a great job making this party adorable!
Anyone who has small children in your life, I'm sure will recognize the call, "Oh, Two-dles!"
There was also cloud sand, soapy water, and kiddie pools to play in!
Make a wish Minnie Mouse!
Balloon!!
This gift got the best reaction! She pulled it out of the bag & exclaimed, "Socks!!" Everyone laughed, so of course she said it several more times for good measure :)
Ducks! You are never too old for a photo booth!

Then on her actual birthday, we went for our annual Ton's dinner & then got ice cream after. We love our little Lynnlea!
For Lynnlea's birthday gift from Uncle Hubby & I, we went to Play Street Museum in Plano. Lynnlea really liked the space sand!
This place is so cute! It is perfect for little ones (their website says 1-8 years old).
They have a ton of areas to play all with their own theme. She also spent a lot of time cooking in this kitchen :)
Then she fed the baby
Road trip anyone?
She knew just what to do with these magnets, she has a set at home.
To finish off the playtime she colored a picture that she gave to grandma when we got home :)

I forgot to take a picture :( but after our playtime, we met Uncle Hubby at work, and he took us to lunch :) We had Mr. Wok in Plano & Lynnlea loved her Chicken Lo Mein! She was so excited to see her Uncle Patrick!

Happy Birthday Lynnlea! Uncle Patrick & Aunt Krystle love you very much!!

Obstacle Warrior Kids

In February this boy, who once weighed 1lb 12oz turned 6!
Also, can I say how happy I was that McDonalds gave him a real deck of cards instead of a cheap plastic toy!
For his birthday gift I took him to Obstacle Warrior Kids in Dallas.
This place was a huge hit!
He totally did this on purpose!
The employees here were super cool! They helped Elias have a great time, and never treated him like a little kid!
He ran, and climbed, and jumped until he finally laid down and was very ready to leave!

Thank you to all the staff for making this a fun birthday trip!
