I cannot believe our Will is 5 years old!! We had a MAGICAL birthday party this year. He had been begging to have his party at home. After the 3 Year old carnival party, I was sure I would never do a party at home again; but he won me over and we are all SO GLAD we did!! We kept it simple, had it on a weekday morning and that made it enjoyable for everyone, including Mommy!
I love the #5 Sparkler on the cake, it was a wonderful touch and made the cake look magical!
As the guests arrived, everyone met out in the back yard for some early play after getting a magical tatto!
The boys and girls came inside to find the family room transformed by our AMAZING (and I do mean AMAZING) Magician Doc Grimes for their very own magic show!
The kids all wore their Magician hats, ate popcorn out of mini magic hats and were totally enthralled for an hour. And let me tell you, keeping 4 and 5 year olds engaged, excited and paying attention for 60 minutes is a magic trick on its own!!!
Before pizza, cake and ice cream. The kiddos headed back into the backyard for the MOST fun Rabbit in a Hat Pinata!! The kids were adorable as they were blindfolded and took multiple swings at that rabbit! I cannot believe we didn't get one picture of that part....everyone was busy having fun, instead of taking pictures. :)
The magician ended the party with a levitating trick!! He had Will floating in mid-air!!!
(Which I cannot get the video to load....)
We are so blessed with so many wonderful people to share this special day with. Everyday after his party, he has made the comment in his, oh so proud voice, "I'm Five now!"
