Jacob's Birthday Party

Since Jacob's Birthday was this week, we got to have his playgroup/preschool at our house so we could have a little birthday party. It was SO much fun!

Joe helped me out and printed some cool decorations for the party at work. Check out all the fun toy story pictures!

The kids had tons of fun at the party. The first thing we did was play musical chairs. I was surprised at how good they were at this game!

There was a lot of running a giggling as they all scrambled to find a chair.

Jacob and Kyle were especially good at musical chairs. They were both pretty fast!

After musical chairs we played "Pin the Badge on Buzz". Check out the cool poster that Joe printed for me and that I pieced together. Not too bad, huh?

Jacob's friends thought this game was pretty fun. Especially the part where I let them help spin each other around in circles!

They all did a pretty good job of pinning their badges on the poster of Buzz!

Then we opened up Jacob's presents. He had so much fun seeing all the nice gifts that his friends got for him! One of his favorites was the bubble gun that Kyle got him. All the kids wanted to see it in action, so we got out our other bubble-blowing wands and went outside for a minute.

The kids all had a great time taking turns blowing bubbles. As you can see, we had bubbles all over the place!

We were planning on having a treasure hunt in the sand box, but it rained too much yesterday.  In the end it didn't really matter because the kids had a great time. We at our cupcakes and ice cream and before long it was already time for everyone to go home!

What a fun time Jacob had at his party! He loved being the "star" for the day (and he looks like a space ranger in those glasses, right?) . I am so glad that he has so many friends that he enjoys playing with that could come celebrate his birthday with us!
