this one isn't cutesy or adorable like the frog and monster themed
parties of the past. he's growing up which means his parties are
more grown up too.
months back he asked me if he could have a 'military' birthday!
YES, military. *sigh* he went on to say that c or i need to be the
drill sergeant and make up things for him and his friends to do.
{since i'm the official photographer, i'm leaving this job to c}
he is rather competitive and loves physical activities,
and with his love of camo and war related things right now,
i wasn't surprised at all by his request.
it suits him.
i needed easy so i jumped onto etsy and found lots of military themed
party printables. i narrowed them down to three and let scout select
what he wanted. i placed an order and the customizable printables
were sent to my email. easy peasy!
the invites have gone out to about a dozen kiddos, and i will be wrapping
water bottles this week and punching cupcake toppers to help tie the theme
throughout his party. i'm hoping the tank piñata that is being created by
casa de las piñatas will be ready by next weekend.
scout is SUPER excited about his special day!
i caught him doing pushups a few times this weekend
and when i asked what he was doing, he said he's "training for
his bootcamp". *wink*
oh, how i love this almost 7 year old!!
~ tomorrow is the 4th and i'm thrilled we don't have to go anywhere!
with a pool, it's easy to stay home and invite friends to come to us.
we'll be having 4 neighborhood families over and looking forward
to pool time, bbqing and kids ziplining!
