When the boys were picking which kind of cake they wanted for their birthdays earlier this year, I was so excited that Cole picked the shark since it would be a great theme for a pool party.. of course we had hoped the sun would be shining and it would be hazy, hot and humid! Instead we got cloudy, cold and drizzly.. but we were able to make the most of it while wearing sweatshirts instead of bathing suits! Two years in a row we've had rain.. next year has to be good weather right?!
Thankfully we had planned to roast hot dogs with the kids for lunch, the fire pit helped everyone warm up a little from time to time!
Grampy W. and Jane brought baby chicks for all the kids to see! they were so cute and super soft... If only they stayed little cute and soft I might want some...
Luckily the rain held off for the most part, with only small spits of rain so we were still able to play outside the entire party. The three-legged race was the funniest part of the party I'd say. Most of the kids had never done this before so it was a hoot when they all started the race and realized it was much harder to walk with three legs than two!
And then we had sack races! Also funny!
And then it was time for cake! The birthday boy was so happy!
And presents! Cole has such nice friends and family! He got so many fun things! Thank you everyone for making his birthday wonderful!
This was Cole's first friend party, since he is now in preschool and has friends! ha ha! aside from family friends that is!
Baby Padge in the house!
And after everyone had left we remembered the shark fin we had bought for Cole! Oh well.. shark tag next year I guess!
Thanks to everyone! Even though the weather wasn't what we had hoped for you all helped make the party super fun!
