Happy 5th Birthday Justin!


Happy Birthday Justin....I know it was last month, but it takes me a while to post things. I can't believe you are FIVE! You are getting so big! We had so much fun celebrating your birthday. First, "Breakfast in Bed" it's a tradition in our family and we love it...candles in the pancakes, singing, and gifts. The kids really look forward to this.



Then we had the "family birthday" party...those are always a lot of fun...more fun for Justin! Thanks everyone for coming to celebrate!

















Then came the "friend birthday". I had been planning for a while and Justin had mentioned that he wanted a Kung Fu Panda Party...did you know that NO ONE sells kung fu panda party supplies, except for on line and since I always wait till the last minute...that wasn't an option. So luckily, party city had Chinese new year party stuff! It turned out really good!













































I made Justin's Panda Cake, fortune cookies dipped in chocolate and sprinkles, candy sushi, and I had the kids eat Roman Noodles with chop stickes. They loved it!




The bouncy house was an hour late, this is a picture of all the kids waiting for it to be put up...but it all worked out! I love you Justin! You are such a stud! You are so loving to me and I love the time I get to spend with you. I love watching you grow up! Your so fun, and I am so proud of you! I love being your MOM!

Oh my! What a great idea for a party. You are so creative. I so wish I had kids the same age as yours so we could hang out more. (well, I'd skip the whole diaper thing and all)
