Trevor turns Six

Trevor celebrated his sixth birthday this weekend. If you can't tell, the theme is Angry Birds. It seems to be the popular trend going around his classroom, as this is the third party with the same theme this month... So we had fun with it.

Large scale angry birds game--they get to set it up and knock it down


I kept encouraging them to spread out the blocks, but tall towers were pretty tempting


Action Shots:


Pin the Beak on the Bird:


Egg in spoon race--the little girls wanted to play too. They got to use two hands... but still found the concept a bit tricky. It was pretty cute.


I was pretty excited about making angry birds banners:

And angry birds in space (though I've been corrected that the yellow one should be purple... unfortuately the dollar store did not sell that assortment of colors so we made do)

Cake!

 Trevor was a big help in decorating all the cupcakes. And good thing too because I was planning on putting white bellies on the blue and red ones, which would have been completely wrong (as I was schooled by the then five year old). And I did not realize the importance of having a licorice fuse on the bomber birds... Trev stuck with the whole process up until we got to the final batch of red birds. He asked if we could take a break, and I suggested he go play while I finish the last few. He agreed only after making a red one first and me agreeing to keep it as a guide for the rest.


Song time


Candles successfully blown out

Present time was full of energy--and had exciting packing materials to rip around the yard: 


Nora woke up as everyone was leaving. But she was totally there...

I wish I could do photoshop tricks--they need some sort of sky or space background... I'm sure they all landed safely...
