Landon turned the BIG 5 this year!!
He asked if he could have a Big Kid Birthday Party, Not one that babies come to... I thought that should be easy enough, he has lots of friends in our ward that we invited, and the only "babies" there were Lashae and her lil friend... Beckam. He also told me he wanted a Pirate Party with LOTS of Pirate Games and of course a Pirate Cake ~that, thanks to my friend Daya, looked Amazing!!~ We even made Pirate Map Invitations and took them to his friends.
While making plans and telling me just how he wanted his party and what games we should play, he started to get really excited! Then said, Mom, wouldn't it be SO cool if Uncle Lyden could come to my party!? I told him that would be really cool....but that uncle Lyden lives really far away now and that probably can't happen. He was sad but understood. Later on that night I got on the phone and told Lyden what Lando said. Lyden asked what day we were doing the party and told me that both him and Chelse would be there!!! I was SO excited for my lil guy!!! I didn't tell him that his uncle was going to be here for his party, so when he showed up the day before.... he was So surprised!
The Pirate Party Activities were.... Pin the Pirates on the Ship Chelse was my artiest on that one :), Pirate Find-It's ~another Awesome idea by Chelse... rice in jars with a rope, ship, gold coin, sea creatures, a pirate jewel and a penny, Wonderful Idea!~ Pirate Treasure Hunt...and last but not least the Treasure Chest Pinata!
Landon was SO happy his Uncle and Chelse were able to come and spend his special day with him...BUT the Birthday surprises weren't over!! He also got to go back to Idaho with Lyden and Chelse to spend a week with his grandparents!!
Needless to say... Lando had an Awesome Birthday Party and Birthday Week!!
We LOVE that lil man So much and are so Blessed to have him in our Family!!
