Calling All Superheroes....

Owen's 4th Birthday Celebration....



the theme....SUPERHEROES!
the place....BOINGO BOUNCE!


the invitations...

The setup...

Supero Hero Cupcakes...

A BATMAN Cake...per Owen's request! 

 Thanks to "The Cake Lady", Owen was able to eat as much cake as he wanted!  He once again requested strawberry cake with cream cheese icing! (low-fat of course)

The Party Favors....

...Razorback Super Hero Capes and Mask! 



Since Owen's 3rd birthday, he has thought that EVERYBODYS' birthday should be celebrated at Boingo Bounce.  (i.e..Aunt Amanda and Aunt Anna both turned 21 this year and Owen REALLY thought they should go to Boingo Bounce, Ha!).  So...when we asked him what he wanted to do for his birthday he said "eat cake and go to Boingo Bounce"!  And that's exactly what we did!!



Super Emmie and Super Owen...

Super Kinley and Super Brooklyn...

best buddies...

Super Mackenzie...

Super Ansley...

Charley...

Super Campbell...


Caroline was not a big fan of all the kiddos running around in their mask.  She was fine with the capes but thought the mask were a little too scary! 

But she warmed up fast and realized it was just her friends dressed up!

Present time....


Owen had an absolute BLAST!!!! He didn't stop the entire time and was dripping with sweat!  I would say it was a successful birthday celebration with family and friends!!

Happy Birthday!!!

My baby boy turned 4 yesterday!!!  I can't believe he's sooooo big! 

We started the day by singing Happy Birthday and letting Ava Kate wake him up...

birthday streamers and balloons...

a little balloon game to start the morning...

We spent the morning lounging in our pajamas, letting the birthday boy open presents, and making donuts!

Owen has been really wanting donuts lately and after looking for a low-fat version and coming up short....we decided to make our own!  We found a low fat recipe here and used a baby cakes donut maker to make mini donuts that were around 1 grams of fat per donut (way better than 23 grams for 1 Krispy Kreme donut)!  They turned out pretty good and Owen loved them...especially the chocolate ones with sprinkles!


yummy!

Happy Birthday to you...

...Happy Birthday to you, 

...Happy Birthday to Owen, Happy Birthday to You!

delish! 

Yum...

After breakfast, we took Ava Kate to daycare so we could spend the day with Owen!  Our first stop...Bowling!!  



It was Owen's first time to go bowling and he had a blast!  

wipe out....

a little help from daddy....

his happy dance....

our first game...

After a second game, we decided it was time for some lunch.  The birthday boy requested a cinnamon roll so we headed to Stonemill Bread Company (since they have delicious fat free cinnamon rolls)!


diggin' in...

The next stop...Toys R Us!



After playing in the store for what felt like 2 hours, the final decision came down to these....

the winners...

After a much needed nap, Owen woke to more presents from Beema and Papa Joe...

Trying out his new Big Wheel! 

After a few spins around the block, it was time for dinner and Birthday cake!  Owen requested "white" noodles and strawberry cake and ice cream....

Happy Birthday to You, Happy Birthday You....
