Cade's Birthday Bash

Cade's big birthday bash was last Sunday. He wanted a ....(drumroll, please) penguin party! He wanted to invite his classmates, the neighborhood kids, some of his church friends, and his cousins! All of those people added up fast! Cade was so very excited about this party. He enjoyed picking out his cake, picking out his party stuff, planning what to do, and picking out the goody bag stuff. He was incredibly excited and joyful. For me, it was worth every penny we spent. Cade had a great time! He still was not feeling 100%, but thank goodness we did not have to cancel. The kids bounced, played with bubbles, played with chalk, and had a snowball fight. The snowballs were styrofoam, and I was a little concerned that the snowballs would cause injuries - but it went perfectly.


Fun bouncing - the little boy in green is Ethan who is one of Nate's buddies - Ethan's brother is Cade's buddy

This little girl is Nikki - Nate LOVES Nikki. Really, he talks about her often and loves playing with her. They are so cute together.
The birthday boy!

Mark got into the action



See all the penquins






It was windy so we had to hide in a corner to blow out the candles

Maybe not the best planning here :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SWEET CADER RAIDER
