Return of the Sixth (Joshua's Early Birthday Party)


Don't you just hate it when people sing to you? I didn't think we were that bad.

Getting wet.

Pre-party fight

Lightsaber cake

More wet-but it was warm & windy so everyone dried fast:o)

Today was Joshua's 6th birthday party (2 weeks early) after church. Return of the 6th is because his 3rd birthday party was also Star Wars (Return of the Sith/Return of the 6th-get it?). Anyway, my kids had fun & hopefully everyone else did too. They got wet with splash balls & sponges,ate cake & ice cream,broke the pinata,etc..Joshua did not like our singing & refused to pretend to blow out candles for a picture-the wind was keeping the candles from getting lit. Oh well...

Thanks to everyone who came. Really big thanks because I know you all made sacrifices to get here. Paul & Cami made special arrangements to have Scarlett & Desiree come,Aunt Cheryl for the long drive while being on call, the Ellisons for making the drive even though Kelly isn't 100% post surgery, & John for bringing 5 kids all by himself while Belinda was sick. Joshua has opened up all his stuff already. Mom Smith, Joshua is putting his money in our "Wii Fund".

After the party I washed & vacuumed the cars with help from the kids. Ambitious I know but it was time for the once a year wash & I'm only partly kidding. Then the kids attempted to go in the pool. It was too cool for me though. We're all tired & have got a busy day tomorrow with P.E. & a wildlife presentation after that plus work for me & dance for Hannah. Todd has an MRI for his knee on Tuesday afternoon. If you think of it, pray they can find out the problem & fix it with no problems.
