Yes, Liam's birthday was about a month and a half ago--but it's been a busy time! Here are some shots from the party. He chose Woodland Park as the setting, invited a bunch of his buddies from school and the neighborhood (unfortunately a lot of them were out of town), and chose 'boggarts' as the theme for his party. A boggart is a mythical creature that can assume the form of any creature, object, vehicle--pretty much any noun. We weren't really sure how to work that theme, but Amy did some research and came up with some great ideas: masks for all the kids to impersonate various animals, and boggart charades--we worked together to come up with a list of fun nouns for the kids to impersonate. Since most of the kids can't read yet, we made photo cards for each object, each kid picked a card, pretended to be what he/she saw, and the other kids had to guess.
We also had a pinata (shaped like a parrot, of course), played duck-duck-goose, and the party favors were all magic tricks, in keeping with the mischievous nature of boggarts. The Wolverine cake and ice cream were delicious, and a good time was had by all.
Hard to believe Mr. Little Guy is growing up so fast!
