Carter 's 5th Birthday Party

Carter had his 5th birthday party at Head Over Heels Gymnastics. His cousins and many of his friends from school and church were able to come celebrate with us. Unfortunately, Tim was not able to make it since he was in the hospital recovering from kidney stones!

Two gymnastics instructors led the party activities. They set up an obstacle course and let the kids run through it. The hit of the party was the trampoline runway that ended with a big jump into a pile of foam cubes. Hudson ran right behind the group the whole way. He likes to pretend that he is 5!

Carter wanted a dinosaur theme again this year. Since we have now used all of the dinosaur cakes that are commercially available, I decided to make one. Thankfully, Julie, who is a very accomplished cake decorator came over to help.....with her one year old twins. We laughed as we baked and decided that the next cake should probably be made with the help of a babysitter!! It was a fun day and we appreciate our friends who made it so special!
