Carson's Birthday Party

Carson had a friend party last Friday. He wanted to have a Star Wars themed party- it was so fun to plan.
 Above is a picture of the refueling station. I had cute Star Wars themed table ware, balloons and light sabers.
 We played lots of fun games but I only have pictures of on. Battle the Storm troopers. We had white balloons with storm trooper faces on them- and then a whole cooler full of water balloons- the kids had fun "battling". The kids also played hunt for Jabba's treasure- kind of along the lines of a Easter egg hunt except just candy- they even got to hunt in the sandbox! And then they played unfreeze the characters. I had purchased 8 Star Wars figurines and froze each one individually in containers. Each kid had to use different tools to "unfreeze" them! The kids loved it!
 Our party favors for the kids were a box of fruit snacks and glow sticks

 Time to battle!


 I think Steve was as excited as the kids were!

 Then it was time to refuel with pizza, strawberries and yogurts.



 Then it was present time
 Oh the anticipation......
 He got totally spoiled and loved having his friends come!

We ended with an ice cream sundae bar. Here he is blowing out his candle... one kids remarked.... "is Carson one"? Haha I only had one candle on his ice cream- can't put anything past 4 year olds.

Speaking of which I can't believe he is 4- I am loving this age. Carson loves to play with his brother, sing (although you will never hear him since he is so shy), helping me cook in the kitchen and loves to play in his sandbox. He is such a joy in our lives!
