Birthday Parties Galore!











So Austin had 3 birthday parties and got everything he ever wanted! He was very specific about not getting any toys or clothes. What 6 year old doesn't want toys?!? He only wanted Yu-gi-Oh cards or art stuff. Picky, picky.

Sunday we celebrated his birthday with my family and back on the first week of October we did it with Cameron's. Then yesterday we had his friend party. We had lots of great costumes and played a lot of fun games. Austin loves the game fruit basket, we changed it to be candy bucket and the kids had so much fun playing it, it took a while to get the hang of it, but then we couldn't get them to stop. Cameron and my cousin Lyndsey even played. We did pumpkin bowling, relay games, the limbo, and a game where you feel monster body parts. We had carrots for monster fingers, peeled grapes for their eyes, cooked spaghetti noodles for their brains, and gummy worms for their guts. They had fun guessing what they were.


For lunch we had mummy dogs, monster toes (cheese puffs), and monster ears (apples slices), and a hand floating in the punch. Austin did not want a cake he wanted dirt. We made chocolate pudding with crushed oreos and gummy worms. It was a hit.


After the party we took the kids to see "A Nightmare Before Christmas," they had it at the theater in 3-D and the kids loved it. It was a really fun day!

Sounds like such a fun party! I bet everyone had a blast. And I LOVE that movie! I was sad to hear that it was only coming out in special theatres...Twin Falls doesn't do "special". ;0)

That party was so much fun!! You were a great hostess. I never got to talk to you much about the movie...did Austin and Greta like it? I think Alina and Jordie liked the popcorn more! HE HE! She is so cute. Oh I love that girl!

The kids loved the movie and they wanted to go again the next day. We are going to have a sleepover party for Greta's b-day so tell Corin to be planning on it. I'll let you know more details when I know more about when we are going to pack our house!!!
