john's 6th birthday

JOHN'S 6TH BIRTHDAY

the birthday celebration started by john receiving birthday money so off to walmart we went were he bought a lego zurg and rex doll from the movie toy story. he and addie are obsessed with toy story at the moment. we almost had a toy story bday party but clone wars and spider ham won the battle. what????? you don't know who spider ham is???........... neither did i until a year ago. spider ham is the swine equivalent to spider man.
next year i am making sure john chooses a theme that is all purchasable. period!!!
here are some pics that document the festivities.



rex watching john put the zurg lego action figure together.



john and rex were excited to have a new toy to play with.
john still sleeps with rex, zurg and buzz light year (which was a big hit when he received it at his party.)


and so the party celebrations begins.......

homemade spider ham cupcakes.


homemade spider ham bath bomb (for the party favors)


homemade marshmallow spider ham popsicle, after this pic was taken i added the eyeballs, which was just a bit of white choc.

john was non to happy about being sung too........



addie chloe, dilon and carter. our dear dear friends




real men eating light saber popsicles


church friends. me, carrie, julia and caroline (aka mrs. carolina)


good friends robyn and jason eckel


good friend moriah with her new baby, levi





john's already a ladies man.


ta da da DA!!!!!!!!!!! BUZZ LIGHTYEAR TO THE RESCUE!!!!!!


star wars lego set. if you don't know john LOVES!!!!!!!! legos.
i, on the other hand am not to keen on digging through the nastiness of our bagless vacuum rescuing pieces that have been vacuumed up.


everyone relaxing at the pool


john shooting out of the slide. he literally could spend all day going down this slide.

dan going off the high dive.


john jumping off the high dive.

this is not something that john chooses to do at the pool. thank goodness for parent pressure :/


addie loves hanging out in her ducky puddle jumper life jacket.
best $15 i ever spent........... for the pool.




family pool pic.

see that lifeguard in the background.... he was in 8th grade when i taught photography..... trevor is now a sophomore in college...... *DISLIKE*


addie was pooped out at the end of the day
too much cupcakes and sun


john was showing off his party tshirt. it was nice and white when the party started. why use napkins when you have a perfectly good tshirt to wipe your hands.



the next morning, after the party, i found that john had gotten a sharpie and made buzz officially "JOHN'S TOY"



i celebrated the end of the party by going to see eclipse with my 2 best friends. robyn and moriah
