A Birthday Carnival

Grandpa Steven and Grandma Kathy have A LOT of grandkids!  It just so happened that 2 of those grandkids turned 3 while we were all together.  So, of course we had to have a party!  Liz (her daughter, Libby, was a birthday girl) planned and put on quite the carnival birthday party!  It was so big, we used the church!  The kids all had a blast and got tons of prizes and cupcakes.  I love celebrating birthdays with cousins! 

Now, prepare yourself…it was such a cute party, and between 3 different cameras, I have an overload of pictures!

It all started with dinner…hot dogs, mac-n-cheese, and fruit salad.  Yum!

Then all the kids decorated bags to hold their prizes.  Jesse decorated Steve.

Uncle Charlie made this awesome clown, and EVERYONE got their picture taken in it!  Here’s Steve.

There was a face painting station…and actually Liz painted most of the faces, I painted Jer’s and gave Ali a tattoo!

Steve kept stealing suckers from the sucker game…Jesse gave in!

Crazy faces!  Jer, Cammie, and Quin.  These were some of the many prizes!

Pick up a Duck was hit for the babies…and the big kids!  Hey, anywhere they could get prizes!

This was, by far, the favorite game of the night…Balloon Darts.  Nice shot Jer!

Yes, we even had a sack race!  Cammie is trying to race with Steve in her sack, I believe she lost!
