Jack's 5th Birthday Party

This past Saturday we had a birthday party for Jack.  This was his first party with friends and I think he would say it was a success.  It had a Lego theme to it and was full of fun and games.  When the party was over Jack came up to me and said "Mommy, well done!"  Best compliment ever!
 We had the party from 1-3, so it didn't call for much more than cupcakes and juice boxes.
The kids had to guess how many Legos were in the jar.
Pin the 5 on the Lego Man and knock down the Legos.
I made Lego bags for everyone.

All the big kids got to partner with their parents and build either a Lego truck or a Lego airplane.

The kids were divided into teams and played the egg and spoon game, except it was a Lego in a spoon.  First team to fill their jar past the black line won.

I tried to get a group shot, this was as good as it gets.

We had a great time celebrating Jack with all his friends.

I agree with Jack! Well Done! Very impressed! Conner is having his party on Monday but I am not creative we are just talking a handful of friends to the movies. Therefore I don't have to think of anything. I am lazy like that. Plus I will be bymyself since Matt can't get off of work.Grrrrr.
