Hudson's 7th Birthday

Huddie Boy turned 7! He wanted an Iron Man party (shocker!) I wasn't feeling up to a big party at home like I usually do, so I did something I thought I'd NEVER do. Like I say...Never, I repeat never,
say never.

I threw a character-themed birthday party. And I mean REALLY character-y

Check out this party table. Go big, or go home.

Oh yeah, you know it.
I ordered a bakery cake.

And we went to Boondocks. And ate the food there. And it was good!!

Uncle Teato came to celebrate with us

The arcade games, laser tag, playground, and 3-D theater were a hit!
I daresay I think I'll try to talk them into this idea every year.

A few presents...

 

 

A little cake....and then we packed it all up and went home to a clean house. Which was perfect, because we were leaving for St. George the next day for Thanksgiving, and I didn't need any extra stress.

We got there late Wednesday night, and all cousins had made birthday cards for Hud. It was so cute! I brought crepe paper, balloons and a birthday banner to decorate, and the next morning, he woke up to a fun birthday surprise. 

He got the silver Iron Man costume

Iron man Lego's, and an Avengers razor scooter among many other fun goodies

What a sweetie!

Not so much here though. I wanted a picture with him on his birthday, and he was not too thrilled about the idea. What a clown.

We brought down chocolate donuts for his birthday "cake" and he was thrilled.
Happy Day to our sweet Hudman!
