The 5 year old!

Since Nate's Birthday he has been refering to himself as "The five year old", Benny as "The three year old", and Eli as "The one year old". Who needs names....we have numbers :)

For Nate's fifth birthday he requested a SUPERHERO Party. His favorite super hero currently is Ironman. We did a joint party with his buddy Cade Helmar. Cade is more of a transformer fan, so I decorated their cakes accordingly. I made the rainbow cakes again and rainbow cupcakes because the kids love all the colors (and so do I). Grandma Juee made special capes for each of the kids attending, they turned out awesome. The kids were so excited, thank you Grandma Juee!! Missy (Cade's mom) made all the food, it was yummy (I love joint parties)! Also thank you to Nina for the delicious salad. We held the party at Pretend City in Irvine. We had the party room for lunch then got to play in the museum for a few hours after. After the party we went out to dinner in Long Beach to celebrate the birthday boy some more!

Nate Stats at FIVE:
Nate is 40 1/2 inches and 35 pounds
favorite color- red and green

Cars 2 in Hollywood!

At El Capitan in Hollywood this summer they are showing Cars 2 and having the fun zone, like they did last year for Toy Story 3. We all enjoyed this so much last year we took a group down the day before Nate's Birthday party. All the kids had a blast, it was much warmer than last year! I think the kids favorite was painting the real car, Benny was in heaven!
