Noah turned 10 years old on Monday, May 17th, so of course we had to have a birthday party on Sunday the 16th. He requested a "turtle" party but came up short. The store couldn't make a turtle cake and we couldn't find any party decorations with just turtles (unless you want Ninja Turtles!).
So, we switched the party to a "turtle and fish" theme, which suited Noah just fine! Jordan and Noah decorated the entire kitchen and living room area on Saturday evening, and it really turned out great. We picked up a few balloons during the day, such as an enormous fish and seahorse, and they really added to the theme!
We had everybody come over for lunch at noon. We did our usual "deli sandwiches", in which everybody just makes their own sandwiches, from meat, rolls, and fixings. Everybody gets to make what they like and there isn't much for leftovers this way.
Noah had TWO pinatas, thanks to Jordan, who told me that Muluken needed to really feel the excitement from breaking open the pinatas. I think I was had!! The kids LOVED all the candy and we even made it up to Casey in breaking both of them. This is huge, because we usually only make it through the young kids and the pinata breaks. Casey is 16!
Noah's favorite presents: a new compound bow, a fishing bow (to shoot the fish in the water), clothes, money for Brewers' tickets, gift card to Scheel's, more money, Kinex legos, and a new pitching machine to help him practice his batting for baseball. He made quite a haul!!
What a handsome boy!
I LOVE YOU NOAH!!
