Blake turned 4 on August 1st, and he INSISTED on a transformers birthday. We kept it small and invited only a few friends, but it was still loads of fun. We started out with an obstacle course. I told them that planet earth was being attacked by the decepticons and we needed to save it. So, we blasted into space from Cyberton (the slide).
We went through the black hole. (tunnel)
We rode around the moon in our spaceship.
Then we launched into earth's atmosphere.
We fought the decepticons.
And then we defeated Megatron. (Punched a balloon with Megatron on it)
Blake got an Optimus Prime costume for his birthday, and it's been permanently attached ever since.
We played a few other games like Transformers memory and pin the gun on Optimus Prime. We played autobots vs decepticons with balloons attached to their ankles, and had them try to pop each other's balloons. Sooo....I guess they were a little young for that game, because there was a lot of crying involved. Woops!
We ended the party with Transformers cupcakes and a scavenger hunt to find the allspark cube (the source of the transformers power) which had the party favors in it. The kids had a great time, and that's all that matters.
I thought I'd include a picture of our new swingset. This was our birthday gift to Blake and it only cost us $20. I love craigslist!
Happy birthday Blake!!!
