Tucker's 5th Birthday Party!

Tucker turned 5 on 6-15-11 but had his birthday party the Saturday before (6-11-11). It's so hard to believe that he is already 5 and will head to Kindergarten in September, he has grown up so much in the past year! It was decided that Tucker would have his birthday party at Me-Maw and Paw-Paw's since there is more shade there and hopefully there would be a breeze coming off the pond (we didn't catch much of a breeze but at least we had a little shade). That morning we headed to Me-Maw and Paw-Paw's to set up...Whitney had promised Tucker that she would take him to kids day at the credit union (Tucker was so excited b/c they had a bouncy and that's all he wanted to do). While he was gone, we all set up the bounce that my sister had rented to SURPRISE Tucker when he returned! You should have seen the look on his face...you will see below that it made his day! Paisley trying out the bouncy before Tucker arrived (she was 23 months old on this day)!

Reed trying the bouncy out before big brother Tucker arrives!



So much fun!





And here's the BIRTHDAY BOY! Look at that surprise look!



All the cousins enjoying the bouncy before the party!



And look at how happy he was showing off the bouncy!


LOVE this one up close!



Tucker just before his friends arrived in his pirate shirt (his party was pirate themed)!





Reed finishing up his lunch or trying too...check the next picture out...he just couldn't make it!









The Pirate Birthday Cake...it matched his invitations!





Getting ready to blow out the candles!







Alyssa and Paisley (check out Paisley's goose egg...she and Tucker butted heads in the bouncy)!





Reed waiting for some cake!




More jumping!





Camrey and Paisley!




Getting ready to make cotton candy!




I am always behind the camera so I made a point to have someone snap this of one of my best friends since middle school and myself! Her youngest (Camrey) and paisley are only 3 months apart!





Camrey again!





Cotton Candy oh so good BUT what a mess!




Opening gifts!




Paisley LOVES balloons and cotton candy now!





Paisley and Camrey had the best time together!





Claire after her cotton candy...she thoroughly enjoyed it and made a mess of Aunt Mandy too!




Tucker and his "girlfriend" Parker! She is such a cutie and sweet!





And one last gift from Aunt Chele, Uncle KK, and cousin Paisley...look at his face! Once again so excited!



And here he is on his new bike...I'd say turning 5 was a huge success!
