Carter turns 6!

THE INVITATION: THE GUESTS:

THE FOOD:
R2D2 Cheese and Grapes

Yoda Soda

Princess Leia Rolls

Light Saber Veggies


THE DECOR:




THE CAKE: THE ACTIVITIES:
Pin the Target on the Spaceship

Making Outer Space Jars

Moon Rock Clean up

Once they proved their worthiness, they were made jedi's and were given a robe and a light saber. Then they went through Jedi training with Matt...



EVIDENCE OF THE UNWELCOMED GUEST: While we were eating cake, there was a loud thump on our front door. When Matt went to go open the door, HE found a bird dying on our porch. He had flown right into our door. Sad. But horribly creepy. Especially since after the party we met our family at the movie theater for presents, more cake and to see the movie RIO (about a bird who can't fly). Happy birthday buddy. We are so happy that you are part of our family! You are one exceptional kid. Love you!

What a fun party! Don't try and pretend the dead bird wasn't planned because that is awesome. You should have told the kids they had to eat it if they didn't pass their light saber training.

I can't believe Carter is 6. He is still as lovable as ever. Love him.

Oh Man! Maryann - That birthday party is one of the cutest I have ever seen! The food ideas were so clever, the games were creative and fun, and the robes and light sabers were so cute! It reminds me of how excited I would get at planning you kids's birthday parties when you were little. BET YOU HAD A BLAST TOO! AND the bird was a great preface to the next part of his party!
We love that Carter boy so much. He has been the greatest blessing ever for Max AND all of us!!!!
Thought that was extra nice of Gene Jr. and Amy to stop by his party while visiting from Australia!
