We are still celebrating these two turning 5! Five seems like a big one and they are twins and have to share everything so we celebrate big! They love a good party theme like their mama! This year they wanted a Star Wars party. No they have never seen the movies or shows, but somehow know all about it and love it. They helped me design their cake and cookies.
We went to several different venues and they picked My Little Gym in Charlotte.
They had so much fun in Jedi Training with all their best friends! They had the biggest smiles on their face all day long.
After running around and pretending to be Jedi we had a snack and some cake.
They gave all their friends a Star Wars Pez take away. I was kind of sad I didn't get to go all out with the theme this year, but at the end of the day they had the best time and there was plenty of space for all the kids to run around and have a ball!
We changed into our pjs (star wards glow in the dark ones for them) and spent the night opening presents, playing tons of board games and snacking on one of their fav dinners.
On their actual birthday we woke them up with our traditional balloons in bed and the happy birthday song.
We made them 5 pancakes with sprinkles!
They wanted a meat and cheese board for lunch, but had school that day so I tried my best to incorporate it into their lunch box!
I surprised them at school with Star Wars cookies for their class.
My kids still nap daily....yep they are 5 and still love to sleep! On their Birthday we skipped and went to Discovery Place Kids to play!
For dinner we went to Mellow Mushroom and requested a booth in the bus. Ellie hasn't eaten here so she was so excited.
They knew it was their birthday and made them cinnamon and sugar desserts in the shape of the number 5!
What an amazing start (yep I said start) to the Birthday celebrations!!! I could celebrate these two and their birth every day!!!
Happy BIG 5 Ellie and Bobo - sending much love, hugs and kisses - love you all Aunt Becky
