Carson's Birthday

We had Carson's 4th birthday party on Saturday. With some brainwashing from his dad he has decided that he loves Star Wars. So naturally he wanted a Star Wars birthday party. The last 2 birthday parties my brother made his cake, so in April Carson called Andy and asked him to make his birthday cake. Andy and Misty outdid themselves and made this AMAZING R2D2 cake.

I decided that Pintrest is definitely making birthday parties easier. I found 2 cute ideas that were pretty easy to make. The first was to make light sabers using foam pool noodles. Kevin worked on this project and they turned out super cute and the kids loved playing with them.

Kevin did a great job making these and picking out the favors with Carson.

Trying to keep the balloon from touching the ground. This might have worked a little better had it not been so windy :)

The other project was to make a Death Star pinata. We did this by getting a soccer ball pinata and spray painting it silver. Of course the kids loved the pinata (I mean who doesn't like getting free candy!).

I guess that's what the Death Star looks like :)

Getting all the candy!!

Carson had a blast celebrating with his friends and family. We are so blessed to be surrounded by so many people that love our sweet boy. Even though we are all wearing Star Wars clothes, I really like this family picture (notice the cute Star Wars skirt my mom made Courtney).
