audrey's b-day

audrey had a fantastic birthday! we always celebrate twice- once on the actual day and then the party. audrey planned her entire party. she wanted a scooby-doo party where "daddy would be the monster and we chase daddy and daddy take off the mask and then daddy chase us, just like in scooby-doo":) so that's what we did! i took the kids to pick out a mask and the three of them chose a darth vader mask. yep. darth vader. so jacob was darth vader for the monster chase, which was essentially a version of hide and seek combined with tag. they had a great time:) we also had a pinata that took FOREVER to break. jacob had to step on it to get it to break:) enjoy the pics!! we had a blast! audrey was asleep within 20 minutes of everyone leaving:)

getting out some aggression:)

those scooby doo figures got here just in time!

highlight of the party- watching jacob and our friend jason get the balloons out of the tree. at one point audrey said, calm down everyone, jason's not going to die! he had climbed the fence to reach for the balloons while jacob pushed them toward him with a broom, standing on a chair. SUCH a guy moment:)

happy birthday girl:)
