I promised myself I'd get through Christmas before I started worrying/planning the parties. I'm already knee deep into planning Garrett's, I went back and forth and finally settled on a Star Wars theme. He is OBSESSED with Star Wars, but I also feel he's just way too young. Then I stumbled on this website and there were tons of ideas for little kids Star Wars parties, so I really got excited. We are going to host a Jedi Knight Training Camp. He can wear his Halloween costume, I'm borrowing a Yoda costume for Payton. I'm going to make these super simple Jedi Knight costumes and light sabers out of pool noodles (if I can find them in January!!), and duct tape, and we will have an obstacle course set up for the kids to "train" on. I am SO excited and really hope the weather cooperates, if not, I'm trying to plan things for inside too. I've even secured a Chewbacca to come and make a guest appearance (thanks "uncle" Josh)!! I think G will be out of his mind. I've told him a little bit and everyday he asks if it's time for his party yet.
As for little Miss Payton, I really want to do an Owl theme. Being that it's her first party, there won't be much in the line of games, I hope the older kids aren't bored! Maybe I need to reconsider that...... Anyways, I've found some designs for ADORABLE owl cakes and I'm just really loving the idea. I'm still just gathering ideas for hers, I think I need to get through G's party first!
I'm going to do G's party the weekend before his birthday and Payton's the weekend after. I'm apologizing in advance, since a lot of the same people will be coming to both parties! But, I'm just not very into the idea of making them share a party. I'll see how this year goes and maybe I'll reconsider it next year. And for those who care, I wanted P to be a fall baby!! I almost, well, I think I did cry, when the Dr told me her due date, lol!!
