Bug Birthday Party

We held Max's birthday party as a picnic in the park. It was perfect! (Except that Max refused his morning nap and was cranky)
The park provided a great place for the kids of all ages to play and have fun. meaning I didn't have to provide amusement.




I brought bags and stickers. The kids decorated their goody bags and then I filled them.

We visited the ducks and turtles.

We made great friendships!

We had fun!

All the adults chatted and ate while most of the kids played

Our Caterpillar out of balloons. the wind didn't always keep it looking cool but that's ok.
another plus about the beautiful park is I didn't have to do much decorating :)

Before and after cup-o-dirt. I served this instead of cupcakes. Lesson learned- never add gummy worms to hot cooked pudding. wait until the next day after its been chilled in the fridge. if you don't wait your worms will melt and the pudding will taste like gummy worms. I found a way to ruin the easiest dessert ever :)we had to add fresh worms

Max fell asleep the instant we got in the car. It was killing Lily that he hadn't opened his gifts yet. So the moment he woke up she wanted to. I made her wait until he was ready. This is one of his many awesome gifts!

Thanks for all who came and celebrated our great guy's big day!
