Turtles and Tiaras

We combined the kids' birthday parties this year with the theme "Turtles and Tiaras."  Since they are still young enough and still share many friends it worked out great.  We hosted the party at a place in Worthington called Supergames.  It's basically a big warehouse filled with inflatable bounce houses, trampolines things for the kids to play with.  The package included a couple of helpers who helped set up, watched the kids, rallied them for food, served them food, and cleaned up everything.  It was awesome!  We were really lucky to have a great turn out of friends and family and the kids felt truly loved by all that day.  It was a great way to celebrate!

The invite that I found on Etsy.

We kept it simple with pizza, fruit, veggies, and cupcakes.

The cupcakes were done by this sweet lady at Kroger.  I wish I had a close up of them because she did a nice job.  If you look carefully, Nolan's were Ninja Turtle faces and Quinn's had little tiaras on top.

I definitely took a close up of the favor bags since I made them all.  I thought they turned out pretty cute.

The best picture we could get of everyone.  I think they ended up with about 20 guests!

Silly faces.

You don't have to ask Quinn twice to eat pizza :)

 We didn't take too many family pictures during the party so we had a picture session in the parking lot before heading home.  Hey, at least we got some pictures, right?!

 This is the ridiculous amount of presents that came home that day.  The kids were so lucky to have so many nice gifts.  They opened them all the next day and some were stored away for a rainy day.

 The thank you note to match the invite.  We wrote a little personalized note on the back as well and Nolan took the time to sign his name to each one.

Although it was fun to celebrate their birthdays, I am proud of what we put together but happy that birthday season in this house is in the books for another year ;)
