Joshua's 5th birthday party

Yes, Joshua is now 5!  (that's five, not five factorial ;)

Unlike last year, when he didn't seem to care, Joshua has been asking for a party for months.  He decided on a dinosaur theme, but the only really dinosaur things about the party were: a dino cake (bought, not made, I cannot draw!), and a guess how many dinos are in the jar game.  Mostly, we had a few friends over, played some fun outdoor games, ate lunch and cake, and celebrated the big boy.  A special bonus was that my dad functioned as the party photographer and got some great shots of all the silliness!

Crazy like a fox
Our first game was "Mr. Fox, what time is it?".  These kids look like I am REALLY going to eat them!

Next up, balloon pop.  Here is W getting in on the action!

Close and happy?
Friends waiting for the next game!

I haven't posted in a while and just wanted to get these two cute photos of the boys up!  W is taking a marathon nap today so I actually have time to play around on the computer :)
