What an amazing turn out we had for Jake's birthday party. I was so honored and flattered at how many people and kiddos came over to share in his sweet afternoon. I know they say to invite the number of kids as the number on the birthday...oh well...we just have too many incredible friends with awesome kids!Jake was so pumped the whole day. Which meant he didn't nap. Oh fun. But that didn't seem to phase him thankfully. But it did, however, rub off on his brother, and he decided not to nap too...that is another story. But all in all they did GREAT. Jake was so pumped to paint. Once all the kids arrived he kept calling everyone out into the yard to show off the painting supplies. We spread out the munchkins as much as we could and gave each of them a canvas and a paint brush and let them go to town with whatever color they wanted (or pretty much whatever color was closest to them)
It was so fun to see all the different personalities just through the painting.
Landon was very gentle and meticulous with his paint strokes
Andie was REALLY good... her's was the only one that actually looked like something
Scarlett was so sweet and gentle with hers...she also did a good enough job to where you could tell she was painting with a purpose
Pierce was also really gentle, like his sister. Another solid sheet of canvas...
Reed watched
The Wysocki's too did a great job on theirs, one of which Jake decided he would help out on, and ended up getting extremely embarrassed and sad when I ran over "loudly asking" for him to not paint on Owen's....oppps...
Brock painted everything BUT the canvas and just ended up playing the in water bowl the rest of the time
And Jake was all about texture, using leaves and grass and a solid mass paint mashing in all his colors together.
It was awesome...we all had so much fun watching them. And again, I am so thankful for amazing friends...and seriously...what other 3 year old boy gets to have a bunch of cute collegiate soccer gals at his birthday party?? and he has NO IDEA how cool that really is!
It was awesome...Jake requested and got his daddy's famous cookie cake and we had that and brownies and icecream to tap off the evening.
Then the next day we opened all the presents that he didn't open the night of and share them with his brother :-).
