Nathan's 7th birthday! He was trying to decide between a baseball party and a ninja turtle party. I'm glad he went with ninja turtles, it was fun creating the games prizes and masks.
I went to Jo-Ann's and bought a 1/4 yard of felt of orange, blue, purple and red. We were able to make 6 masks of each color and Robert and Kiera cut out the eye holes and the nose notches.
Then of course we got pizza because that is a ninja turtle staple. 7 cheese pizzas!
Kiera was in charge of face painting, all the girls were all over that.
Chocolate cupcakes with green frosting.
I didn't get a chance to take a picture of it but Robert made a board with circle cut outs. I put tissue paper behind the holes and then a brown paper bag with a prize. So all the kids got to punch out a hole and grab their prize. There were some bags that were empty because the prizes wouldn't fit through the holes, I had those in a bag next to me. They all thought that game was pretty fun! I got the idea from this blog http://www.cravingsomecreativity.com/2014/02/19/ninja-turtle-party-ideas/ Ours was blue and the 3 fold board so the holes were only in the middle, 24 holes.
Light Saber battle at the end of the party.
Haha I love Nathan's Intense-Happy face!
Since Robert and my dad couldn't make the day time party because of work (it was a Tuesday afternoon) we did cake and ice cream that evening. Robert's parents and my mom were able to make the day time party which was nice. :)
Nathan got an army hat
Dog tags
and the kind of flashlight he wanted (almost blinding Mommy here)
And some army pants. He was pretty excited about all his army stuff. And of course Blake bringing the rock music to the party. haha
My 4 wonderful blessings!!!
I like how Blake gives some blowing support.
haha
Oh my sweet Nathan! He is an awesome little person and young-man. I'm so honored and beyond blessed to be his Mama!
What a precious day!! Thanks for sharing - and good job on all your party prep!! :-)
