Calling All Superheroes!!

So Saturday was Eli's 5th Birthday party.

Please excuse the crappy photos, I am not sure what setting my camera was on.

The pictures are crazy colors, or too dark, or just wonky looking.



But I HAD to document the party and Eli's 5th birthday.

Also, can anyone tell me how my son is 5 years old?

How did this happen?

This spiderman websprayer was {the hit} gift! He loved it as you can tell by his face.

As we were getting ready to sing "Happy Birthday" he looked at my sister

 & says, "Hey Nannie! I'm watching you!"

This kid is a TRIP!

Looking {quite) embarrassed being sung to.

 I mean he {IS} five years old now, maybe we should stop!

Not gonna happen kiddo!

He said he didn't want cake, just the fondant- he ate the bat signal!

Excited to open gifts!

He was so lucky to get such great gifts from our friends & family!

Change of Plans..

So I wanted to book Eli's birthday party when we got back from vacation.
I called the SportsPlex and they have since moved locations & upped their party prices.
BOOOOO!
So we are changing plans.
We are now having a Super Hero party at out house!
Here are the new ideas

Really liking this set from ItsyBelle on Etsy.

 I wouldnt have to make anything just print and put together.

Loving the details from this precious party @ herpricelesslife

Its going to be a pretty low key party.

We've had a lot going on lately.

But we will have an awesome cake made by my friend Jenny.

Eli wants a super complicated one like the ones below but we will do a combo of these somehow.
