Party Day

Well today was Little man's party, and he was pretty excited

 Here's the table all set ready for pizza and cake

 I decided this time I was keeping it simple and made cupcakes and toppers (in photoshop) instead of a cake.

 Well I thought I was, but B asked where his smash cake was(she is very much liking the idea of smash cakes for not just one year olds lately) and I said well I didn't make one, but since I had left over batter from the cupcakes I poured it in a pan and made one.

 The problem with making a cake and frosting it too hours before the party, is that it is very crumbly and does not frost well. B said "it's fine mom, it looks like they had a battle"

Apparently I did not take pictures of all the activities so here is a run down of what we did: as the kids came they were issued their gear, a helmet and  a shirt my sister in law screen printed with the word army across the front. Next it was time for sergeant says, B was my sergeant (she even wore an army shirt because we had an extra one, kind of sad that she fits into a 6 year olds shirt)

Next we had physical training which consisted of sit ups, push ups, running in place etc, then it was on to the mess hall then off to basic training camp, where they had to do an army crawl under a net, weave in and out of cones, and up and down the stairs.

We then did target practice using a printable I found HERE and nerf guns.

We did the pinata next.  Little man hitting the pinata as hard as he can

 the candy scramble. The pinata lasted through them all hitting it twice.

Cake time was next. blowing out the candles

 He LOVED the idea of a smash cake and didn't hesitate to dive right in

 Here is the inside of the cupcakes...camoflage

Then it was present time and time for kids to go home.

I really need to do a better job at taking pictures, I apparently didn't get a picture of all of the kids together either.
