The Force is Strong with this one...

Jedi Nathan had his Star Wars 6th Birthday party on Sunday, June 26th.

We had a fabulous feast for our Jedi family that came to the party!!  

 My favorite, Trooper Scoopers and 7 Leia Dip!  LOL

 Obi-Wan Kabob-i's.

 Vader Veggies:

 Edible Ewoks, Salty Sabers, and Han Rolos!

 Jedi Juice:

 Han Burgers and Hutt Dogs!

 Of course you shouldn't forget to Use the FORKS!  :)

Mr. Brantley enjoyed some dip!

 Cuzzies eating lunch!

 Check out this sweet R2D2 cake that Grandma Mamie made for the birthday Jedi!

 He LOVED it!

After cake was present time:

 Gramma J used a LOT of tape! 

 So Lily came to help...

 Or maybe Dash was helping...

He got a camera to take on our trip!

Vader blankie!

 Nate was SO excited about his Eddie Lacy jersey:

 Check that out!

He also got a Packer guy cup:

 And an Eddie poster!

 But don't forget the sandals!!  

Nathan was absolutely spoiled with gifts and love.  Thanks to all who made is birthday wonderful!

Squeaky Clean Birthday Fun!

I had come across information on the Bubble Run 5K way back in October... the Bubble Run was coming to Madison on June 25th.  Since Nathan was so bummed last year when he wasn't able to do the Color Run with us last September, I thought this would be a fun birthday celebration for him to do the Bubble Run with the family!!    Daddy had to drop out of the race at the last minute due to a softball injury.  But, we still had a great time and Nathan loved it, and that it the most important thing!

All geared up and ready to head to the starting line:

A clean picture with Daddy:

 Playing with bubble wands while waiting to reach the start:

 Starting line selfie!

 And we're off!

 I got bubbled!

 Our friend Jen happened to be at the starting line and caught this pic of us:

First colored bubbles were PINK!

 Heading in!  Look at all those bubbles!

Mads got overtaken by pink bubbles!

 

Nate picked up a few bubbles on the way through!

 Selfie heading into the green bubbles next:

 This is my favorite picture:

 Then this happened!  Where's Nate!  :)

 Green Bubble Babies! 

 Yellow!

Wading into the blue bubbles:

 Blue was our last color:

 Looking good, Mads!

 Squeaky clean kids?   

 We made it across the finish line!

 With Daddy at the end of the 5K:

 Congrats to my Tater Tot and Pickle!  They rocked the 5K!

 And...  about 5 minutes after we left the parking lot, Nate was zonked!

It was a bummer that Daddy wasn't able to join us, but the kids and I did have some fun twirling in the bubbles and getting some squishy shoes!  :)
