Owen's 5th Birthday!




My little boy is now 5 years old! Wow. What a sweet & handsome boy he is :) this year he really wanted a pirate birthday party, he'd been talking about it since last year. Another birthday wish was to invite some kids from his class to his party. We ended up inviting the junior kindergarten kids from his class and sent the invitations out in June. I was so worried that many kids wouldn't be able to attend being the summer, but he ended up having 6 friends from his class, plus family & friends. I think there were about 17 kids in total. 

We rented a private birthday party place & it was so much fun! even the adults had a blast & didn't want the evening to end. There was a giant enclosed play structure & the kids really had fun running all over the place. They especially loved the foam canons & ball pit!

cupcake time!


What a fun party! the play place had just opened up in our area so it was a first time playing there for the kids! 










treasure island cupcake - yummy with graham crackers & brown sugar crushed on top  :)





pirate cupcakes! I loved how these turned out - they were so cute.



I'm so glad he had a great day with family & friends, here's hoping he doesn't expect big parties like this every year...yikes!

Happy Birthday Owen! you'll always be my baby :)
