Owen turned 2 with a great party Saturday night!! Owen loves pirates, so we threw him a pirate party for his birthday. As most of you know, I LIVE for parties and go all out for everything, but my kid's birthday parties are my absolute favorite!! The weather was perfect and we had the party in our backyard for our huge family and closest friends, about 40 people all together!! We had a pirate ship inflatable pool for the little kids and then Shane and the guys built a HUGE 80ft Slip and Slide for the kids and the not so young kids =). We had a treasure hunt and at the end of the night roasted marshmallows!! Everyone had so much fun, especially Owen...below are the many pictures from the party...thanks to Tara and Nicole for helping me with pictures!!

Now time for cake...
The cutest part of the night, Owen sang Happy Birthday too...while we all sang, he sang as well. When Claire was younger she was scared of the Birthday song ("Why are all these people singing in unison and looking at me???"), so we have been singing it ALOT, so I guess he knew the song and he loves to sing!!=)

It was so much fun! You're right...it is going to be hard to top that! (it's also going to be hard to compete with next month! ;)) Sterling had so much fun and has the battle wounds on his belly to prove it! :)
That looks great! I'll have to ask for some advice on Elyn's first b-day!!!!
Love the theme...boys parties are a whole new world that I have not thought of! You did a good job. I am right there with you...is there such thing as a child's party planner??? If there were, that would be the perfect job for me!!!!
Glad O had a good time...looks like lots of fun!
