Carson's 5th Birthday Party!

We enjoyed celebrating Carson birthday, with family, on Saturday. Thanks everyone for coming, bring gifts/goodies/food, and making it a special day for Carson! We so appreciate all your love and support. A big thanks, as well, to those of you who sent cards, gifts, and called to wish him a Happy Birthday!

 Carson wanted a "Koala Balloon" cake this year! I looked some up on the internet - he preferred one that looked similar to this. Of course, the other one was easier, but C didn't think the dimensions were quite right ;)

 The kids wanted to play outside - our lawn mower broke, so long grass and it was kind of cold and wet - sooo, the kiddos had to change into their outside clothes!

 Uncle Timmy was "throwing" the watermelon to Austynn :)

 

 Yummy meal! Thanks everyone for contributing - made my job easy!

 Carson LOVES these ribs and requested them for his birthday!

 It was funny, for some reason this year Carson was SOOO excited about party hats. He talked about the party hats for a week! Lu and Karen found some Mater truck ones, but Carson thought he wanted normal ones, so they got those, too. He ended up choosing his bear hat as his party hat ;)

Mitch sported the Mater hat!

 Got to love the Spider Whack :) from Uncle Timmy and Aunt Jackie! (I put this toy up in our closet with his "grabber" - he gets to play with them when daddy is home!)

 Koala cake time!

 We had fun using the sparkler candles that relight! Two or three continued to light. The girls came over and got in the action, but Carson wanted to do them solo :)

Our Paislee girl! :)

 Carson was loving Uncle Timmy and looking at him so cute, but the 1st three pictures had Tim with his eyes shut or food in his mouth, so by the time I got a pic to work, Cars was on to the funny face!

Again, thanks to all who helped out and came to celebrate with us!
