Logan's 4th Birthday Party

On Saturday, June 29th, we celebrated Logan's 4th birthday by having a car themed party.  Now, before I go on, I must note that according to Logan, he is turning 7...not 4.  This will be important later when you see the pictures of him blowing out his candles.

We invited our families, the neighbors, a couple of other friends, and some of our friends.  We had a fabulous time.  Here are some pictures.  I wish I could have gotten more, but I didn't take a lot during the party because it was more fun to be part of the party and not watching the party through the lens.

THE PARTY

We have similar pics to this from last year's birthday at Grandma Linda and Paw Paw's house.

AFTER PARTY FUN

Taking a well deserved rest and enjoying some bubbles.

The handsome birthday boy!

I will catch you bubbles.  Come here!

He said what?  No he didn't girlfriend.

It was a really great party.  Logan really enjoyed the party, the cake, and all the cool gifts he received.  Let's hope next year is just as good.

An afternoon at the mall.

Kevin had found a coupon for half off a deep clean.  So, when the maids showed up, I didn't want to hang around with 2 kids that would be in their way.  I wasn't quite sure what to do since it was the afternoon and over 90 degrees outside.  Then I remembered--Inflataworld.  It's a bouncy house place at the mall.  Bingo.

We got in and Logan took off running as soon as I had his socks on.  Scarlet wasn't so sure.  I couldn't get too many good pics since the lighting sucked.  And, I got more of Scarlet since she was stuck with me and it was hard to keep up with the boy.  He had a blast though.  I am sure he would love to go back.

After Inflataworld, we took a ride on the mall train.  Logan liked it at first, but he got annoyed that he had to stay seated.  And maybe, he got bored of the mall scenery...wouldn't you?

 

The last thing we did was ride the dollar carousel.  Logan saw it on the train ride, so I told him we could do it.  Scarlet wanted to ride too, even though it said 3+.  Oh well.  She had fun and I felt she would be okay on it.
