Happy Birthday Ethan, oh wait isn't it April 17th?

I know, I know, it's been over a month since Ethan's birthday, but with soccer, illnesses, Easter, and Conference, we just haven't had a saturday available to have Ethan's birthday party. Last year on his birthday we were moving and it was his year to have a party, so we had to have one this year. So after many weeks of asking "Are we haveing my party this week?" and "Am I going to have to have my party with Dylan?", we finally had a free saturday to have a party. This year instead of haveing a bunch of friends over, he wanted to go and see "Diary of a Wimpy Kid". So we allowed him to invite two friends and we headed out to the movies. I went in with really low expectations and the movie didn't turn out half bad. The kids on the other hand LOVED it!

After the movie, we got pizza and went to the park. The boys ate tons of pizza, except for Ethan who ate maybe half a piece, and guzzled sprite and root beer. Kaden was certain he could eat a whole pizza, so we challenged him to do it and he only made it through a measley five pieces.

After the pizza we had cupcakes. I got these really cool sparkler candles, I was so excited for them, but it was a little bit windy so they didn't even light.

This is Ethan pretending to blow out the candles for the sake of a picture.

Then it was present time. Dylan got him a frisbee and a sky ball catcher, Kaden got him a baseball bat and some balls, and Hunter got him a lego set. When we got home Ethan put the lego set together in under and hour.

Once all the food was eaten and presents opened, they went and played on the playground. We were at one of the only parks that has a merry go round. Some one was spinning them really fast and they soon got off litterally ready to loose their lunches!

Once everyone was feeling better, they tossed Ethan's new frisbee around.

Hunter was sitting in the middle of the game. I was shooting pictures trying to get some good ones and got this one where he got hit right in the head with the frisbee. Great shot for me, not so great for Hunter. He was ok though.

The boys had a great time for Ethan's birthday. Hopefully next time we'll get it done closer to his actual birthday. For us it didn't seem much different than a normal saturday going to the movies and dinner at the park. Happy late birthday Ethan!
