Owen's Birthday Party

Today was Owen's birthday party (tomorrow is his actual birthday). He wanted to have a Soccer party, which made it easy and fun to plan.

First we played a pin the tail on the donkey-type game, but it was get the soccer ball in the goal. Don't laugh, I'm not the greatest artist. Yes, that is Easter grass at the bottom.

I decided to try my hand at making a pinata - not an easy task, and it turned out a little lopsided, but it was a lot of fun!

Then we played a few other games, then it was time for cake. My good friend Karen made the cake for us - it turned out awesome (and it was yummy too!).

Then it was time for presents, I think Owen was a bit overwhelmed with the whole thing. Once he realized what was going on, he loved all of his gifts!

All in all, we had a great time.
