Happy Birthday from SPIDERMAN!

This past Saturday Adrian and I threw Thomas a 5th Birthday celebration that just so happened to include a special appearance from SPIDERMAN! It was a huge hit! (Thanks BUBBA!) Some of the kids were a bit apprehensive at first, but most warmed up to him and by the end were chasing him around the yard and having a great time. He came and helped play games, smash the pinata, apply tattoos, and open presents! It was a lot of fun. The weather was gorgeous, which hasn't happened a whole lot for Thomas' birthday in the past, so we were thrilled. Here are some neat pics...

Here's Thomas saying HI to Spiderman! I announced that he would be arriving shortly, then a few minutes later, Thomas decided to go check for himself...and just happened to see him coming through the gate. It was so cute- he ran back around to the party shouting "HE'S HERE!!"

The older kids posed with Spiderman before we started the pinata.
Here's the pinata Adrian & I MADE. Totally worth it, but took much longer than either he or I planned! We were up until midnight the night before gluing on all the little red pieces of tissue paper!
Thomas and cousin Matt pose with some of the gifts. Cool gifts. His favorite by far is the Spiderman watch Matt gave him. Thanks Auntie Tiffany!!

Brooklyn & Thomas showing off the tattoos Spiderman helped apply.

I made Thomas' cake this year. It wasn't anything spectacular as I tend to lack energy and creativity at 35 weeks pregnant, but it was fun and he loved it.

Overall, GREAT party! I hope everyone who came had a fun time!!
