My little Rock Star is 4!!!

Can you believe it?! I have a 4 year old!!! How crazy is that?!

For Reid's birthday party we became Rock Stars. I had so much fun preparing for it and Reid had fun making all the important decisions, like the colors for the plates and cups, how his invitation looked and how he wanted his guitar cake to look! Jed said I had to cut back on all the pink (100% honest, Reid choose that color for almost EVERYTHING!) So i allowed pink napkins and the writing on his invitation to be pink, also some frosting on the 'microphone' cup cakes were pink too.

Luckily, Grandma Wells was in town and was able to stop by!


First we made our own microphones!


We played the 'balloon pop' game once everyone showed up. Next time I'll use bigger balloons for the younger children. They pop easier!

Then on to the PINATA!!!

We made our own pinatas. Originally they were to be disco balls, but with the colorful one I added construction paper because I was so worried it was too thin and would break easily. Which is also why i made 2 pinatas!

The green one, I let the kids paint prior that week. Unfortunately it broke off the hanging piece and we couldn't put it back on so we just let them beat it to death!!
and poor alexis (my niece) fractured her tibia the day before they came to town! She learned quickly how to get around!
We made a guitar cake and decorated it with candy! Plus we had 'microphone' cupcakes (we used the icecream cones).


Then of course...presents! The first pix is of the present Grandma Gentry got him, a microphone with a speaker in it so Reid and sing all he wants! Thanx Mom!
The second pix is of some of the kids. They each were able to hold the present they brought for Reid and give it to him once he chose them! It kept them sitting and not trying to help!



I made drums for them to play with and they each got their own guitars (inflatable)!



I think this was the best part! I plugged the camera into the T.V. so they can see themselves on it! they truly were Rock Stars!!!
