Kaison's 5 1/2 Star Wars Birthday Party...

Every year we have a 1/2 birthday with freinds for Kaison because he was born on Christmas. This year he wanted a Star Wars party.

We started the party off with some Jedi training games. On the first challenge had to do a obstacle course...

that ended in a water gun shooting challenge.
The second challenge was a bomb throwing contest. The kids had to get wet "bomb" and throw them in the target.
The last game a balance challenge. They had to balance on one foot and get marbles with their toes.

They all completed their Jedi training tasks.

after the games...

After the games were over we broke the pinata...those don't last long. Kaison was the only one who got to hit it. I guess you are suppose to pull the stings under it to open the trap door. After it fell to the ground they all picked a string and pulled it all together.

The had a lot of candy to get.
Then they opened presents, he got lots of fun Star Wars stuff and a cool water gun. Everything Kaison loves.
Then it was time for cake. Kaison loved his cake I made for him it was spaceships flying around the space station.

All the kids seem to be having a fun time.

they became Jedi's.

The kids finally finished all their training and became Jedi's.

The kids loved their new costumes I made for them and the bubble wands that became their light sabers were a fun thing to pretend fighting off the evil empire. It turned out to being a great party.

First trip to Julesburg this year...

Fun with the cousins...

the kids hadn't seen their cousins Ty and Kenzie Zion for a very long time.

We had some extra time so we decide to see the small train in Julesburg. The kids had a lot of fun crawling all over it.

It was a great trip to Julesburg.

Day at the pool

We love going to the pool. This was our first time for this year. Courtlyn had a great time with her first pool experience.

Masks

Kaison is really into Star Wars and is always making new masks. He made him and Ernie Vader masks.

Memorial Day

This year for Memorial Day we decided to stay home. The bought a slip and slide for the kids...this was their first time tying one. They had lots of fun, at first they were a little nervous but after awhile Kaison was doing really good and Aspyn like to walk down it. It was a really fun day for everyone.

Ernie's parents came down and spent the weekend with us. The kids always love spending time with their grandpa and grandma.
