Kanyon's Birthday Party

Kanyon had been looking forward to his party and for me to make his birthday cake for so long! He couldn't wait for all his friends and family to come. The morning started off a little rough... Scarlett managed to climb up on the table in the kitchen and massacre 3 cupcakes before the party even began! Kanyon was in tears saying that his friends wouldn't come now. ;) After lots of consoling and cleaning up, we were back to getting ready.

Then, the guy came to set up the bounce house about 15 minutes before the party began and something was wrong with the blower, so it wouldn't blow up. We just had to start the party without it and didn't have it working until an hour and a half into the party. Nothing goes perfectly, I guess!

What matters most, is Kanyon had a ball and we enjoyed all our friends and family being there! Here are some pics of the day.

Everyone eating.

It's finally up!

The kids having some fun.
The baseball hat cake and baseball cupcakes held by Steve sporting his cubs shirt just for the party. ;)
Kanyon just dying of embarrassment as everyone sang "happy birthday".
Blowin' out the candles!
Eating cupcakes...



I was just laughing at all these pictures of the kids... it's usually my favorite part of the party because you can never get everyone happily wanting to sit and I find it so hilarious! :)
Especially this one, check out Halle (2nd from the left)!



Opening presents... Kanyon was such a lucky kid and loved everything.

Later, after the kids napped, they took advantage of the bounce house a little longer.


Only one minor injury all day!
After we turned the hose on the kids outside and drenched them (no pics of that, I was too worried about my camera!), here is Kanyon stripped to his undies practicing on his new scooter. (thanks Blake!)
Thanks everyone for such a fun day! :)
