The BIG 5

Can't believe my Carter is 5! He has so much energy and is full of life! He is such a blessing in our lives and is a constant reminder of whats really important in life. He is always happy and always wanting to have fun. We started out his birthday with a soccer game which his grandparents and uncle jordan got to watch.


He wanted a Disney Planes party so I had to get creative and make alot of the decor from scratch, but it all turned out ok!


As the kids arrived they made paper airplanes with Chad and flew them off of the balcony. We had quite the time getting them out of our trees and off the roof.



Then we played a hot game of Bus, Bus, Plane (duck duck goose) and I even got in on the action!


A little Pin the Propeller on Dusty was another quick game we played.


And then on to gifts!


Cake and ice cream is always a hit and a huge mess. My floors were so sticky after having 12 sticky kids running through the house! But it was all worth it!


Later that afternoon we did more presents with the family. Boy was he spoiled!

He was lucky enough to have his Grandpa Reed, Uncle Jordan and G&G Hymas at his party. I love that they make such an effort to be there for his birthdays and other big things. I'm so glad my kids love and know both sets of grandparents and they are involved in their lives. It is such a blessing!


Carter's real birthday was on Sunday but we just went to church and took it easy since we did all the celebrating on saturday. It was such a wonderful weekend!
