G's Birthday with Pics

 G had a LEGO celebration for his birthday....with some water play thrown in since Alabama in July is miserable (can't wait for August---I am sweating just thinking about it).
The party began with a craft project.  I had paint sticks already painted to sort of look like LEGO men and the kids added their own details to personalize.  Several baseball players and then some funny guys ended up being the cute bookmark take home craft.  I loved the way they peeked out of the goodie bags.
 Water play!  Nothing says Happy Birthday like being pounded with water guns and running in the sprinklers!

 LEGO cakes!  YUMMY!


 After the party was over we went inside and looked at all the cool cards G's friends made for him (we don't allow gifts; each guest makes a card or picture that G keeps in his birthday book).  Some of the cards were very creative.  G loves looking over them and displaying them on the mantle.
 On the true day of G's birthday we had a small celebration with cake, LEGO of course.
 And G's family scavenger hunt for gifts around the house.  His big gift this year was a Kindle Touch reader, so his other gifts were smaller tokens.

So hard to believe that G is already 8.  love and hugs, B
