Jonah is super excited about starting soccer soon, so we decided it would be fun to do a sports themed party for his 5th birthday! I love birthdays, and I am fully aware that I go overboard...and I'm okay with that! I want my kids to look back someday and remember that they were very celebrated and loved on their birthdays. (And, it's my way of coping with them growing up!) Ha! Since we still don't know a lot of people here yet, and Jonah is just getting started in school, we just had a family party this year. Next year we will go all out on a party with friends too, I'm sure! We had quite a crew of kids there, with just cousins and neighbors. We had fun playing games in the backyard, eating hot dogs and all kinds of other yummy treats, opening presents, just visiting with everyone and the kids loved the pinata! Jonah Mark Baldwin is a very loved little boy!
Carter, Brody, Elijah, Mack, Carver, Addie, Jonah, Olivia, Blake & Madison
Love him more than words could ever explain!
I know I took way, way too many pictures of the decorations and food, but it was just so fun!! I bought several things at Hobby Lobby and then "decided I didn't want them" the week after the party, so I returned them. (Is that bad?!)
Poppa Jim & his littlest boys!
Elijah disappeared and we found him ready to go for a ride on the tractor!
I LOVE these people! They love & cherish our children nearly as much as we do! They are always here to celebrate with us and support us! I am so thankful we get to call them "family!" (Missing G-Ma and Grandma Baldwin...they were probably taking care of the kids!)
About to say Jonah's birthday prayer & sing Happy Birthday! Jonah got a little excited about blowing out the candles and he blew them out right as we started to sing, so we had to light them again and have a do-over!
Time for presents!!!
Uncle John & Bunny got Jonah this awesome Lego set! The girls are really happy that he will have his own big Lego set to play with now, so maybe he will leave theirs alone! I'm not sure it will work that way. Haha!
Some new clothes & the Paw Patroller boat from G-Ma!
The Paw Patrol Seaplane & new clothes from Grandma & Grandpa Baldwin!
And, to complete the Paw Patrol set, he got this from Rex! So fun!
We got Jonah the Batman tower that he has talked nonstop about for months!
Pinata time!!! Thankfully, everyone had fun and no one got hurt!
So much love for this big boy!
Here are videos of the present opening! It was loud and crazy...and lots of fun! I loved how animated and excited he was.
Pinata fun!
