We had a birthday party for Griffin on Halloween
in celebration of our little man turning the big
1!
We sent out a call for all his little mischief-making friends to join him for a "Where the Wild things Are" party!
Since it was Halloween costumes were highly recommended and most came dressed up.
Griffin arrived as Max- King of the Wild Things!
One of my friends was nice enough to offer her house so we could have more room for the little monsters to run and play. Thank goodness! We ate pizza, played in the bounce house, opened presents, took pictures with the Wild Things, had story-time, ate cake and goodies and pretty much had a "Wild Rumpus" of a time with our family and friends.
It was a long day and a lot of work,
but sooo worth all the memories we have.
Here is part of the invitation we sent out:
Come help Griffin make mischief of one kind...
or another
Let the Wild Rumpus start!!!
Max with his Wild Things
Some of the decor:
Cake pops!
Wild Things cupcakes and Griffins cake
Little Princess Milla in the bounce house
Griffins friend Owen made a big entrance in his
darling plane costume
Minnie Mouse (Saylor) and Pink Monster (Brooklyn) enjoying their cake pops!
They are both too cute
Roaring his terrible roar and gnashing his terrible teeth!
Mom in the bounce house with little G and his buddies
King Max without his wolf costume
Opening his presents
He got spoiled and is LOVING all his new toys
Thanks for the gifts everyone!
Some of the mischief makers...it was impossible to get all the
little monsters to pose in the same picture!
Griffin discovered his tail! Too cute!
Our friend Troy reading "Where the Wild Things Are"
He did a great job and the kids loved it!
The birthday boy and his cake
He didn't cry when we all sang to him!
I think he liked the attention
Once he realized it tasted good he was stuffing fistfuls of cake in his mouth.
He knows a good thing when he gets it!
I think he had the most fun just playing with this cup!
After the party we took this little King home for a nap...but it WAS Halloween so later we headed out for more fun in the Max costume...
We walked across the street to the town center and had the BEST time! Free food and tons of rides and fun things to do for the kids...and did I mention everything was FREE?!
I couldn't believe it!
I love this picture
Seriously- Griffin is yelling in so many pictures
He is such a crazy man!
Here Emily finally makes her blog debut...
Love that girl
Griffins first pony ride
He loved it and giggled when the horse would walk
He also tried to eat the saddle
On the train with Em and Brooklyn
This was a fav. for the kidlins
We finally made it home after one very long, exciting and eventful day.
But our little Max still had some spunk in him and made mischief of one kind...
or another...
And finally sailed to bed a very happy and content little one year old.
We love you our little Wild Thing!
