Mason's birthday was this weekend and we had his first ever friends' birthday party.
Mason wanted the same dinosaur cake that he got last year so we went with a dinosaur theme.
I found the cutest dino masks from oriental trading, You can kind of see them on the table.
I made little dino bean bags out of felt and we took turns tossing them into the "volcano" That was probably the biggest hit of the party. We had a pin the horn on the triceratops which was also fun but most of the boys just peeked out of their blindfold.
We played musical dinosaur extinction. Each child had to sit on a dinosaur when the music stopped. Fun but when several of the kids were "extinct" it was hard to keep the game going with the survivors.
Here is most of the gang. Mason (not looking at camera, too excited for presents), Charlie, Tait, Andrew, Lillee (the only girl besides Tess) and Drew. Front row: Skyler, Tayler, and Carter. (Tess didn't make it into the picture.)
Opening presents. Most of the kids wanted to help Mason open the gifts. As long as it was Charlie, Mason didn't care. I guess he trusts his best friend like that.
Blowing out the candles. (Notice my prego belly in the pic. nice.)
Hooray! The pinata! Mason has some mad skills. Look at that form! Everyone had a turn to wack it 3 times until Mason finally knocked the head clean off,
After the party, Tess and I pretty much felt like this....
So we sent Mason and Burke out to a movie and had a girls night on the couch watching Barbie and the Nutcracker.
Happy birthday Mason. We love you so much!!!
