This year our quiet little Hyrum requested a friend birthday party for the first time. The week leading up to his birthday he decided he might like it to be a ninja party. Pinterest saved the day and gave me lots of fun ideas.
Hyrum and I prepped the treat bags the day before with lots of ninja goodness.
Daddy set up "Ninja training" in the basement. He spent all morning putting it together complete with lava, laser beams and obstacles.
Hyrum invited four little friends and was so excited when they all arrived. It was fun to see him interact with everyone!! We kicked off the party making ninja swords out of balloons. It was a huge hit!
Daddy helped Hyrum run the obstacle course so that everyone else would know how to do it.
Those boys ran it over and over and over again until there was nothing left of it.
It was a lot trickier than it looked...
Then of course we had cupcakes (that semi-resembled ninja's)...
Then we opened presents and the boys ran wild until their parents came to pick them up. Ollie napped through the entire party and all of those noisy boys. I couldn't believe it when he woke up after everyone left.
Hyrum really wanted a ninja cake for our "family" party. It was fun to try...
After McDonalds for dinner we came home for cake and ice cream.
I sure love this kid! He's so fun!
He has been asking for roller-blades for a really long time! Watching the excitement on his face when he opened these was so worth it! He has been roller-blading in the garage, on my runs, down the driveway...all..week...long. He's gotten pretty good!!
