Lawson - Kids Celebrate

Happy Birthday to Hudson

Hudson's 5th Birthday

The absolute best way to start your birthday is to open a present!
Hudson opened a cool star wars toy from Mimi and DooDad before she left this morning. Then we went to church, ate a yummy lunch at BJ's with Nonie and Poppa, watched Lawson perform in Kids Celebrate at church, and then ended the day with a little family birthday party! Whew! It was busy birthday!

Oh yeah...and it even came with a Dark Vadar breathing sound device in the mask!
Hudson got his first electric guitar.
He got right to work playing us a song!
AND...bozo the clown to box with his new boxing gloves! Could this birthay BE any better?
Please NO, Hudson! That's why I bought you the clown!
Happy Birthday Hudsy! You are so much fun, amazing and gifted! We love you more than you know!

Hudson's 5th Birthday

So, we won a FREE birthday party at ASI gymnastics. This was fabulous because their parties are really fun...but carry a nice price tag! Hudson has been taking gymnastics there, with Lawson, and so it was the perfect place for his party this year!
I sat down and showed Hud on the computer all the different Birthday Party themes that we could go with...and he caught a glimpse of some Mavericks napkins and locked in on having a Dallas Mavericks birhtday party theme! I wasn't sure we could pull that off...but we did! And he LOVED it!
He had a really good time making all the goodie bags for his friends...with a little assistance from La! They both love a project! So cute!
I still haven't made peace with my baby turning 5!
I found some fun little Basketball cup cake toppers that had the Mavs logo on them! Hudsonthought they were so cool!



LOVE, LOVE these little basket ball court table cloths!
And the thing I love the most...is other than bringing the cake and table ware....I just sit back and enjoy the party! They take care of the set up, entertainment and clean up!





The party hosts were being so silly while they were singing happy birthday to Hudson....I was worried he might wet himself! He was laughing SO hard!


The birthday boy ringing the bell!







I had the super fun idea to bring head bands for every one rather than party hats!








Thanking his friends and passing out his treat bags!
Go Hudson! Go Mavs!
It was fun to have a "Mavs" party the year that the Mavs won the championship!
Then home to open his presents!






Trying out one of his new gifts with Poppa!
It was a very fun day!

Kids Celebrate

This was Lawson's 3rd time to be in Kids Celebrate at Keystone Church. She just loves this event...as do I. It is a kid led, high energy (and I mean HIGH) worship event for kids.
This year the kids were asked to dress in neon.
She is on the back row of the risers.


And here she is on the front left.
It was a fun day! It was Hudson's birthday too!
What up?!
