I'll have a blue party with you...

Ok, Ok, I know that's not how the song goes, but it's what came to mind! When I asked Benjamin what kind of party he wanted way back in June after McKenzie's party, he instantly said a "Red Party!" But then he quickly changed his mind to BLUE! I know we did it last year, but it was too perfect...we had his party at the park again and it was great weather again! Praise the Lord!!!

 

This is how Benjamin has been showing his age the past few weeks, even though he just turned 3 last week. :) He says, "Three right here!"

LaLa made blue spinach dip and blue cheese dip...

do you know if the kids had any of it? :)

I love my little Smurfs!

Annie was probably our most calm and cutest guest!

Thanks to Pinterest and ME's new love for Duct Tape, she and I covered much needed water bottles with blue duct tape.

I guess I can like my own brother sometimes. :)

Although the weather was beautiful, it was hot, making for some thirsty little ones!

I love how the birthday star always knows how to patiently sit and wait for everyone to sing!

This was the BLUEST cake ever! When I told the cake lady that my son wanted a blue party, she would not let me add sprinkles or anything else that would take away from the blue-ness! I loved it!

Those candles always taste so good!

Totally clean, right?

Ben Ben and Fisher=trouble!

My little man!

Blue makes everything taste better!

ME has really gotten into making lists lately. Making a list of Benjamin's birthday presents from his friends was not an exception. Her friend, Vivian, was a great helper, too!

Benjamin took his job of opening presents seriously, too...one.scrap.at.a.time!

She was SERIOUS about her job!

A blue shirt from SuSu and Big Ben fit well with his party!

A blast from the past! His VeVe have him Lincoln Logs...he was excited!

I love how the OCD kicked in with his presents! He and his buddy lined them all up in a row. :)
