Isaias' 6th Birthday!

It seems almost silly to post this now after 2 months! Oh well, better late than never, right?!

This year for Isaias' 6th birthday he chose to have it at Gage Bowl and had his first friend birthday party. He has had a friend or two come to other parties, but this was focused on him and his friends. It wasn't about the adults and food and so on. There's not a thing wrong with family and food, but it was time for him to have a friend party. :) We always have a hard time deciding who to invite, so, this year I let him choose, but there was a limit on how many friends and they had to be boys. Up until school started he preferred playing with girls, but we've been working on making sure he's ALL boy. :)

I had a challenge this year with the cake. I've never actually drawn a figure on a cake, but I made Isaias' cake doing the piping gel transfer. I also used all butter frosting, which didn't work so well and globbed all over the place. Isaias looked at Mario's shoes and said, "eww, what is that?" Ha! I'm only showing the picture that makes it look the best though. The kids didn't care what it looked like. :)

The party went well! They enjoyed bowling, drank pop, ate cake, and had a good time!

So...on a different note. I can't believe my son is 6?!! I know he's still young, but he seems so old to me now! I've enjoyed seeing him grow and his personality flourish even more with him starting school. He's like his Dad too, such a comedian!


When he started putting his candles on the cake, I was about to get after him and tell him to put the candles somewhere else. I didn't. I figured, what was the harm? Plus, it is rather hilarious. :)

Me and my birthday boy!




I could have put all the pictures up of his presents, but chose not to. He has played with everything though and really enjoyed all his gifts. 
Erik and I were blessed to be able to get him a Wii this year! He loved it!!!!


The goody bags I made. The star cookies were lots of work!

The boys!

Isaias enjoyed his birthday party, AND he is already thinking of what his next party will be! I told him to enjoy being 6 while he can!
