Happy Birthday Caleb!


So, here's Caleb's cake. He was so happy and loved it!
I enjoyed making it and the help from Rob was very appreciated!
I painted this sign earlier in the week...thought it would be fun! Caleb of course thought it was cool since it had his name on it.
Go Caleb! Here is our birthday boy at the can knock down game.

Noah at the balloon darts. This game was pretty popular.

Some of the crew here...and Sela playing games.
Aunt Sandi with Jakob (my friend Mary's son) at the Penny Tower.
The idea was for the kids to stack as many pennies as possible.

Sela with a jaw breaker...DANGEROUS! We didn't know she opened it and was eating them...thank God there was no incident.

Dan (Rob's good friend) doing some face painting on Noah.

Kellie working the ring toss game.
Brian, Jim & Caleb at the Ballon Darts.

This was a lot of fun - sack races!

and the adults had a go at it!

and now we're trying to act like we're mature adults...folding the sacs and talking.

We were expecting A LOT of people, so in addition to the cake I made cupcakes, which Rob helped me frost and decorate.

Caleb recieving his cupcake & Ice Cream! MMMMMM!

No caption necessary ~ we can all figure this out. :)

Presents time!


Caleb was so excited to get this Silver Surfer stuff. He got an awesome book and comic books from the Bookouts. Unfortunately, they had a game (Hannah's) to get to so they didn't get to see him open this present...but as you can see on his face...he was so excited!

Sela
Savannah - our neice. She looks so cute here. She was making Elephant sounds as she was posing....it was adorable.
Here Caleb is with a Spiderman toy he got for his birthday and a Birthday Build A Bear.
Caleb had a great day, he was so grateful for everything, and everyone who was able to make it to the party.
On a personal note, this day will stand out in my mind for a long time. I was incredibly grateful for all of our friends and family who not only came to the party but also helped so much. Thank you to everyone who spent time helping before hand, Laura & Matt, and everyone who helped with games: Laura, Matt, Kellie, Jim, John & Sandi, Mary during the party & Tanya for helping clean up afterwards. It means a lot having great friends/ family... so a great big THANK YOU!!!
