A Day Full of Birthday Parties

Saturday we celebrated Zeke's 3rd Birthday. His birthday is not until the 26th, but our church has VBS that weekend so we decided to do it early. We had 6 friends (plus some parents and some helpers) come and celebrate with us in the morning.

We started out by making place mats. Each kid colored two Car pictures, then we glued them to a piece of construction paper then onto poster board. We sealed them up with clear contact paper.



Next they frosted their own cupcake ice cream cone. I tried to make red frosting, but it ended up more hot pink, but they did not care. So if you want hot pink frosting use the whole bottle of red food coloring:)



After that we opened presents and then moved outside where a jump house was set up.



GG & Papa got to our house Friday night so they were here to help set up for the party. Then in the middle of the party Mima & Pa pulled up. After all the kids left we had lunch and then the guys went out to get food for dinner, the ladies rested and Zeke was too excited, so he did not sleep very much. It took a while then GG went in and got him to sleep. Aunt Judy & Uncle Dick came out from Concord to join us all for a family birthday dinner. We had all had a very good dinner. Then we opened presents and had cake!

Here is Zeke riding his new scooter with all the protective gear. He knew exactly what to do and took off.



It was a very busy weekend, but we all had a great time being with friends and family!
