My boy is 4. Well, at his party he was almost 4. My dad was out of town for his actual day. So we had it a little early. I was shocked that he switched from a train theme to Peter Pan, but more than delighted to get on board with that one. Carrie and I put on our thinking caps and went to town. There was a lot of garland involved. I was planning on collaging these pictures together, but Carrie talked me out of it, and frankly, we put in enough work making it hard to edit. So enjoy my tons of pics!
Mark took Carrie's playground and built a boat front end on it, and my Dad and Darla made teepees. Perfect for pirates and Indians! It all came together better than I expected!
Henry was so happy all his buddies came, and were even dressed up. I am still shocked he kept his Peter Pan costume on the whole time (thank you Grandma Donna, for your amazing sewing skills)! Carrie and I found the perfect Wendy dress for Elena, and she looked adorable. Henry talked all week about how excited he was to see her. "She's going to think I look brilliant" was his quote of the week. Watching these two melts my heart. I love that they are still so close, which works out well for their arranged marriage. His buddy Ryder showed up as Captain Hook, and made his day! I'm not sure I've ever seen him so happy, especially being the center of attention. He felt loved, which is really all I can ask for.

I still can't believe the party is over. Thanks to all the friends who came, and to all the help given to us. A special thanks to Sarah Bordelon, the 13 year old photographer extraordinaire. I can't thank her enough for her crazy skills, and for letting me enjoy the party and not worry about taking pictures. If you need a photographer let me know! She's amazing.
