HOly CoW I HaVE a 5 yEAr oLD!!!

What's a Super Mario party without playing a little Super Mario at the end!



I still have moments where I can look at my children with complete wonder. I have so blessed to have these little spirits in my life. With Braden's 5th Birthday I seem to be having these kind of thoughts more frequently! His current obsession is Super Mario and the Cougars--and boy I think we really delivered it on Saturday. Of course you know I am NOT crafty so planning this party was a quite the stretch but his reaction to it along with the decorations totally made it worth it. And thanks to HUGE win by Jimmer and the Cougs his birthday party was complete. So happy, happy, happy birthday to this truly special boy!

It looks like the Birthday/Cougar party was a full-house day-long event ! Maybe the basketball team will oblige Brady next year with another opportunity on Feb. 28 again. .. A Cougar/ Jackson Annual Party?

It was a great party! I think you can officially say you are now crafy... afterall, you did buy a hot glue gun, right?
