Trey's 6th Birthday Party....


What a whirl wind of a party! 11 six year olds plus his brothers - wacky, crazy, really? We all had so much fun at Trey's party. Instead of stressing out, I spent the whole party laughing at all the kids running around playing games and eating cup cakes:) We played a number of games that left these kids sweating and completely exhausted by the time their parents came to get them.
Balloon pop - hilarious...they could have played this for hours. They just kept running in circles giggling not remembering the point of the game is to pop some one's balloon. After about 10 mins of this Dad strapped a balloon on and jumped in!
Potato Sack Race - no pictures of this because I was too worried that someone would fall or crash into each other to take any. We split them up into teams and they had fun laughing and racing against each other!
Pin the Tail on the Donkey - A classic! One that they loved! Each kid did so well, Justin and I were amazed at their blind accuracies! Until one honest boy told us he could see under the blind fold:)
Parachute - A huge hit for this age group too! They did not want to stop! Great team work moment:)
Duck/Duck/Goose - or rather hamburger/hamburger/hot dog....or the one we had to keep stopping, dirty poop/dirty poop/fill in the blank! We did not think they would want to play but they did! This was the game that they were cracking up so much they could barely run to catch one another. Again Dad jumped in and he quickly became the focus of the game. "Pick Trey's Dad and see if you can beat him!"
Cup Cake decorating - This is my favorite! You really get to see each kids personality. From the crazy cup cakes to well thought out designs! What 6 yr old doesn't want a bunch of toppings and the full control to create their own cup cake!

Side Note - Dad totally rocked out this Birthday Party!!! He played all the games which was so fun for the kids to gang up on him:)

Check - one 6 yr old boys party! Glad it came and it is over:)

Agree with Andrew - amazing that Trey is 6. I think we should celebrate everyone's birthday when you guys come just so we can play some sweet games!
