it was a graveyard smash...

connor had his first friend-birthday party.

they danced the monster mash

stuffed their faces with pizza

devoured the cake and icecream

pinned the head on legoman

blew bubbles til they i was lightheaded

bounced on the trampoline

tore through wrapping paper

they giggled, screamed, squealed, shook their little booties,

...and made connor turning 5, a little less sad for this momma!

 i had so much fun planning, organizing, prepping, baking, icing, 

filling, blowing, and getting ready for this celebration. 

and i made a budget and stuck to it!

{thanks to my sweet hubby for spending his lunch break at home handling sam, taking pictures, blowing bubbles, and joining me in the chaos of 10 little kids and a birthday party. love you.}
