Ryan Elijah turned 6 years old yesterday. He's having a birthday party this Saturday. We were all set. Have you ever had one of those moments when you had 2 different things planned and it just didn't dawn on you that they were on the same day? Well...that's what happened with me. When I figured out that we were planning on helping Zach & Shanna move on the day of Ryan's party, I began praying about what to do. So...I asked Ryan if we could have a party here at our house for him on his real birthday. At first, I thought we were going to have tears, but mom intervened and convinced him it was a great idea---he'd get
two parties that way! He finally agreed.
We didn't have just one theme to this party. We had pirates & Toy Story. It's what was available in Borger.
We started out playing a pirate's version of Pin the Tail on the Donkey. We had to get the treasure chest on the right spot on the map.
Addie did quite well!
Mommy even did a great job!
We were wondering if Pops was peeking...
One of the prizes for winning the game was....CHAP STICK! What a hit!
I doubt that Addie's Chap Stick lasted very long. She really liked rolling hers out.
We had cupcakes instead of a cake. After our party, the kids went to Cubbies and took cupcakes for all. They also got to give their friends a light stick necklace. It was so cute when we picked them up---the teachers had the lights off and the kids were rolling necklaces everywhere! (I think they each got 2 cupcakes and a pack of juice...they were bouncing along w/ those necklaces!)
Daddy got the job of taking Woody out of his package. Ryan got a Buzz (his 2nd in his lifetime) for Christmas and needed Woody to go along w/ his new Buzz.
And you can see what he needed to do....
This was the perfect end to their day...watching a movie they got at the church library. We had a fun birthday party with Ryan! Happy Birthday, 6-year-old!!!

What a fun party it was! Nice and simple! You're such an awesome Guh. And we all love you.
I don't know why that posted as Ryan and Addie Belle. It was me!
Ryan's name on the bottom of Buzz and Woody just about put me in tears. They aren't little for long.
I love his name on the shoes too, Amy!!!
