Riley's 5th Birthday
In years past, the age your turning is how many friends you get to invite to the party. This year, I asked Riley who he wanted to invite. He rattled off nine names. I told him, "Oh I think we should pick five." He was so upset and replied, "But Mom, I have so many friends. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings." It was very sweet. So needless to say, we invited all nine. We had a great time. We pinned the life spark on the transformer, brpke into a pinjata, had cake and ice cream, opened presents, and even did a little coloring.

I remember throwing great birthday parties for the kids. I did one every year for Blake, until Samantha started having parties, then I decided every other year is about all I could handle. We have friend birthday parties on the odd years, when they turn 5, 7, 9... and the even years was just with the family. It works out great with their baptisms and with getting priesthood because family usually comes for that anyway. We have a great time as family, but the kids do get pretty excited about the "friends" parties. His pary looks like you went all out. I'm sure it was a hit!
You throw the best birthday parties for your boys! We still have the "Calling all superheros card from two years ago."
