Party...Party...Party...

Ok, so this Monday the 24th I threw Josiah a friend's party...thinking oh' it's a special year #5 and invited a few friends...and their siblings...thinking it's summertime not many will show up...little did I realize that almost everybody on the list would show up except for two families...let's just say there were around 45 there...moms and kids (1year old- 8 year olds), including my mom, Dan's mom,  myself and my kids!  WHEW!  It was a fun time and glad the weather was great!  Just a little bit of organized Chaos!  Is there such a thing? :)  

Dan's Mom made the R2D2 cake...and it turned out AWESOME!  THANKS for all your hard work on it and thank you to Jill for helping us get the cake pan from your friend!  Josiah LOVED it!  Too bad it lasted only a few minutes after the kids ate it! :)

I had games planned, hard to find ones that kids of any age could play! :)...tie the balloon around your ankle and pop other kids'...some of the younger kids didn't quite understand!  :)

So then we did a relay race, with a baseball in a spoon...this is my friend Rhonda and her daughter Libby ...

Most of the kiddos playing...

Birthday boy...

Micah and Hannah in the background...I think he's cheating...holding the ball onto the spoon

Blowing out the candle with friends...

EAting cake and icecream...(L-R) Brynn, Micah, Josiah and Libby...

A bunch of the little ones...

Amanda and Lily...enjoying the sweets! :)

Opening presents...lots of Star Wars toys, Transformer, Legos..and so many fun things!  

The kids kept getting closer and closer while Josiah was opening his presents...it was a little warm! 

It was such a fun day though and lots of fun new memories!  I'm so thankful for the buddies our kids have, they are so blessed!  Thanks to all of you who helped make the day special!  WE love you all!
