This past Saturday was a full day of partying! We had Colin's friend, Cody, turn four and have a fireman themed party, and then our friend Kaiya turned five and we got to spend some time with her family and let the kids play together.
Cody's party was very educational! His Grandmother did a fabulous job with every detail. She made each child their own fireman's jacket complete with badge, reflective stripes, and blinking red lights! Then they also had the hat, goggles, and mask. The boys all dressed up and went to the local fire station where they learned all about the trucks, how to stop, drop, and roll, and got to see where the firemen eat, sleep, and work out.
We had fireman's chili, hot dogs, a drink that was red that the kids got to use licorice for straws. The kids played different games, but their favorite was the obsticle course set up in the garage. They had to start in the fire engine, work their way through tunnels, throw water bombs at a burning house, save a puppy by climbing a ladder, and then bringing it back to the fire truck. The boys just went crazy over this game!
We were exhausted by Kaiya's party, but still really enjoyed our time! Colin practiced his letters on her chalk board and Blake got undressed and messed with the Livingstons electronics-as usual. We ate pizza and had delicious Jello cake! Taking pictures hadn't even crossed my mind, and I'm sorry it hadn't. :( Here are some for the earlier party:
