Our Little Egan boy turned 6! Its hard to imagine that its been that long since he was a swaddled teeny thing in my arms. Hes such a good boy and lets me still snuggle with him and carry him around. :) I'm so blessed to be his mommy in this life and on into the eternities. Egan is the light and the fire in our family and we wouldn't be whole without him.
Here is Egan, and everyone singing Happy Birthday! (mute blog music before playing)
This year was one of the years where we through a huge fiends birthday party for the kids with a theme etc. Egan chose TRON! (If you haven't seen it.. do!) Its one of his favorite shows, so we went with it.
He picked everything. He wanted cheese, meat and crackers, fruit and Cheetos. We had blue cool aid, fudge cupcakes and mint chip ice cream. I decorated the cupcakes with chocolate covered oreos lined with blue icing to look like discs with some printed out paper figures stuck in and blue sprinkles.
Aaron did a great job decorating the whole house with blue, orange and black streamers and balloons. I made party favors for the kids to play with, black Frisbee discs with glow in the dark paint on them (thanks to my awesome sister Harmony for her help!) I cut up swimming tubes and put black electrical tape on them to make a light cycle stick for each of the kids. They also went home with a goodie bag with glow in the dark bracelets, toys and candy from the light cycle piniata! I took apart a yellow winco motorcycle piniata recovered it in black streamers and painted it. Lots of fun. Egan was thrilled, we only got a picture of him hitting it! I also make a pin the guy on the light cycle poster game, but it ended up being decoration because the kids were having so much fun with other things. :)
Whack! So much fun!
Egan got exactly what he asked for! Thanks to everyone who brought such wonderful gifts! He got a Sam Flynn action figure, a real Tron light up disc, a light cycle stick that shoots out a toy cycle, a star wars gun, action hero figures, cars, balloons, candy and more! The grand finale of gifts that Aaron and I gave him was the Scooter! The neighbor kids all have a scooter and he'd been asking for one for a long time. He's already a pro on it... of course!
He's outside helping daddy put up streamers on the porch before the party.
Here is the most wonderful little boy a mommy could ask for. Darling, wild, spirited, talented, affectionate, passionate, smart, compact, adorable bundle of boy!
