Chase's Family Birthday Party

It was Chase's year to have a family party instead of a friend party.  When I asked him what he wanted to do, he said he wanted to have a "sports party."  So we invited our families down to have a sports birthday party.  Unfortunately Ashtyn had a volleyball tournament and Amy and the other girls were out of town.  But we'll party with them later.  We played several sports drills to warm us up.  Then we played Red Rover which didn't go over so well.  Then we played baseball and kickball and threw some football passes.  Chase was in heaven!  We ate pizza with salad and breadsticks.  For his birthday cake, Chase wanted marshmallow brownies.

I love this picture of Robby, Rob, and Matt on our swing.  3 big guys squished together on our little swing.  

Uncle Brandon didn't realize that the marshmallow brownies were Chase's birthday cake so during the party, he cut out a little square.  It was so funny because he felt so bad about it.  It was no big deal.  We just loved teasing him about it.

Yea, present time!!!!  Chase was spoiled rotten by our families.  He got a couple of lego sets, a fun dodge ball kit, a small hymn book and children's song book.  I took Chase to get his hair cut last week and the lady asked him what he wanted for his birthday.  He told her a "small hymn book and a children's song book."  The look on the lady's face was priceless.  She looked so confused.  So Chase was very excited when he opened that gift from Grandpa and Grandma A.  Charlene made the cutest card for Chase.  She does such a great job with them.  I love the pictures she chose.
