happy birthday my boy!

today isaac is 6!


we celebrated on saturday since there was no way we could swing a party today, on monday. he decided that he wanted a mario themed party at home. before the party, he was able top open a few gifts early since they would be part of the party: mario kart game for the wii + controller (thanks g'ma & g'pa johnson), extra controller (thanks uncle n8, auntie dee, & lilia), & a mario t-shirt (mom & dad). isaac invited 6 friends over & we started off with feeding everyone.
on the menu:
sloppy joes
pepperoni pizza rolls
bbq chips
strawberries
cantaloupe
sierra mist

before playing the wii, the kids had to pop balloons. each balloon had a real penny in it that they had to pick up after the balloon burst. once all the balloons had been popped, the person with the most pennies won a prize. plus, they all got to trade in their pennies for chocolate coins, which in my opinion, should be the real currency. below is my favorite picture of isaac leaping on a balloon to pop it.


next, it was on to the wii mario kart tourney.

carson (batman) & dennis, sizing up the competition.




elijah was the big winner!

oh yeah, lauryn had to dress as "princess peach" for the occasion.

next it was time for the birthday...

doughnuts!


last but not least, isaac opened up all of his amazing gifts from his friends. he was so excited & thankful for everything.


this video is from the balloon popping part of the party. dennis decided he needed to show 'em how it's done!

ha ha ha! That video is great! It was fun to see all the details Andrew left out. He told us he ate sloppy joes and pizza rolls, had a doughnut instead of cake (which he loved) and played Wii. He left out the best parts! I hope Isaac had a great REAL birthday today!
