Josiah's 5th Birthday Party!

I pulled a "Sue Ratz" and rounded up all the kids at the end of the party for a group picture - and look how cute they all are!! Josiah's in front. The rest of the kids (from L to R) are Anderson, Jacob, Samuel, Meredith, Jackson, Harrison, Kayla, Greyson, Parker, and Jake. What sweet friends Josiah has - we are SO thankful for them!
Mandy and Jake
Look at this sweet face!! It wasn't that many years ago that he used to CRY during the Happy Birthday song, remember???
Carter was SACKED OUT at the end of the party! He and Callie were troopers for being forced to skip their morning naps!
Josiah and Jacob were thrilled to see the REAL Chuck E. Cheese!

Harrison playing skeeball...who doesn't love it?
Anthony and Jackson (I have several pictures of all the DADS riding this game!)
Greyson on the wave rider...most of my pictures of him are like this...the hat is so low I can't see his eyes! Looks so big to me!
Eating pizza...
The two birthday cakes....Top one says "Josiah...more than meets the eye" (Those are lyrics from the Transformer song for those of you that don't know). The bottom one had "bumblebee" and "optimus prime" on it. Josiah was thrilled!

Natalie and Callie...the striped girls!
Anderson in his Ferrari...looks good!
Sam & Merideth...just like Busch Gardens, right?
Jacob started off on this ride, and then jumped off. He thought it was a REAL roller coaster! Too real for him, I suppose!
Mom helping Jacob and Jackson play basketball.
Josiah's party was so much fun! We had Chuck E. Cheese to ourselves for the first hour, and the kids had so much fun playing in the playground and then all the games!! Mom said to me many times how neat it is for her to see Josiah's friends and how they are all growing up together. She's right - we are so blessed that our children are surrounded by wonderful friends being raised in godly families. We are so priviledged to call you our friends!! Thanks for making the day so special for Josiah!

What a fun time - gotta love Chuck E Cheese. I do remember the crying for the Happy Birthday song. I'm glad he can really enjoy himself now. What a great day!

Godly friends are such a blessing! It looks like a wonderful time. I can't believe you had Chuck E Cheese to yourself for an hour! I'm still finding it hard to believe that you have a 5 year old. Oh how the years go by!!
