My plan this year for Andrew's birthday was to keep things low key- just invite a few friends to Sky Zone. We ended up with a nice crew and they all had so much fun!
There isn't much Andrew loves more than dodge ball. He loves playing it at Sky Zone so we knew this would be a perfect place to take them!
Dodgeball with cousin Jayden= his happy place
He's ready to throw that ball!
This is probably the sweetest girl in the whole grade- Grace. Andrew adores her. He wanted to invite her so badly so I texted her mom and made sure she knew she'd be the only girl amongst a lot of boys! Ha! Grace thinks the world of Andrew and she was so excited to come. She made his day!
So many of these pictures are the same, but I loved his expressions!
You can just tell how much fun he's having- he's made this face ever since he was a little boy!
Andrew and his good friend Tanner. These two clicked right away when we moved here even though they were in different classes the first year. Then this year Tanner and his family moved to a new school in the same town so we are so lucky these two still get to see each other!
This girl got to bring her friend Rylee and they had so much fun too!
I think they spent almost the entire time doing this
I tried to get them both in the air but they kept jumping at different times! Ha!
After lots of fun jumping, we took everyone to Orange Leaf
They loaded up on froyo with lots of candy on top!
These girls were having so much fun too!
This is the nicest group of kids right here- Andrew is so lucky to have such nice friends!
After the party fun, we dropped everybody off and brought Jayden back home and Grandpa and Grandma joined us!
Andrew opened his presents
I say this every year but Andrew would be happy to get no presents or a party if he could just spend his birthday with Jayden. Cake and presents are just a bonus. I just love their relationship so much.
We had a ton of fun playing spoons!
Then Evelyn and Aunt Rachel joined us for cupcakes! Evie had been at Volleyball so she couldn't jump with us.
We tried to figure out how to put 11 candles in cupcakes so we finally just put 2 big candles in and they looked like 1's! Ha!
That face!
The next morning it was more games with Grandma and the early risers!
Then we made breakfast
And had fun putting together Legos!
Grandma has way more patience with these than I do!
The next week he had his well child check up and pretended to be upset- Ha!
I'm telling you, this kid cracks.me.up.
More from his actual birthday coming soon...
