Children's birthday parties are taking over MY life! Of course it's never about what Mom chooses to do over the weekend, it's what Cade Carter and Cam MUST do! My two boys are invited to one almost every weekend! If there's not a party going on, they are MISERABLE WITH BOREDOM! This past weekend was full of birthday parties and we even had to miss out on one of them! A birthday party with just cake and ice cream is definitely a thing of the past. Us parents have to sit down and plan extensively and even map out what the activities will consist of...Don't get me wrong, I ADMIT, I somewhat enjoy them too because I, myself, love to entertain and throw parties. (when I have the time)
We attended Jasper Hunter's 4th birthday Friday night and you should have seen the obstacle course he had in his backyard! It was all about Spiderman and boys climbing (just like Spiderman) It was awesome and my kids loved it.
Saturday Afternoon we went to Koen Howard's 4th birthday in the bottom. (Yes, I said bottom, meaning the HATCHIE RIVER bottoms). This party was right up Camden's alley! The atmosphere of the river and the club house, not to mention the hayride was all amazing. This party was what little boys are made of! The cake was a boat ramp with a boat being put in the river. Koen's mother, Amy, never seizes to amaze me on her creativity!
My question is this? What will we do for Cam's upcoming birthday? He claims he wants a camp out. So 25 kids in a tent in my backyard? All Night? I don't think so.

I really, really do miss the days of cake, ice cream and kids just playing in the yard. That's what a party is supposed to be about! What made us turn into crazy moms?
