Astronaut In Training Birthday Party

Two weeks ago we had the boys' birthday party at our house. Since their birthdays are 8 weeks apart, we had a party for both of them between their birthdays. Lately, Benjamin and Ethan have been obsessed with outer space and planets -- so the theme for their party was born!

The birthday boys:

Uncle Evan enjoying a ride on the "transporter to the space shuttle."

Wow! It look likes Christmas all over again!

Papaw and Ms. Sharon enjoyed all the kids launching rockets:

Ethan (with his Astronaut Helmet) performing "shuttle repairs":

Benjamin is mid-jump at the "Shuttle Launch" station. This is a Stomp Rocket -- the boys love it!

Singing Happy Birthday:

The Space Cupcakes -- much thanks to Aunt Kay for assisting with finishing of the cupcakes!

The goodie bags were filled with Planet Play-Doh, Space coloring page and crayons.

Everyone had so much fun and the boys were so glad to be able to have lots of friends and family here to help them celebrate their birthdays!
