Zachary's Birthday Party

We have been so busy lately that we have not had time to blog Zachary's party from a few weeks ago. So, as promised, here's the highlights. Sorry, no slide show. You can just scroll through the pictures.

Zachary's party was held at a Gwinnett Braves game. Before the game, we had cake and ice cream in the parking lot and let the kids run around tearing up all of the pinestraw and landscaping for a while. Just before we got fussed at by park employees for playing in the landscaping, we ventured over to the game. Everyone had a ball (pun intended)!

As you'll see further down in the pictures, the green icing wasn't the best idea. Zachary, two of his cousins, Tristen and Camryn, along with his buddy Bryson are in this picture - and Mommy of course.McKinney, Bryson, Tristen, Zachary, Camryn and Andrew. The only time they were all still at the same time the entire evening.

Rebekah spent the evening reading two books. She was a little bummed that she didn't have any girl friends there to play with, but she still said that Zachary always has the "coolest parties."Morgan love her cupcake the most!Zachary's face had these green spots for two or three days after the party. That was some kind of food coloring!

This is the middle of the mass chaos that was present time. Zachary loved all of his gifts. Especially the Star Wars and Transformers items.

As we walked into the game, the stadium was giving out free phone books. Not exactly sure how it happened, but our group ended up with 3 or 4 of them. About the third inning or so, Zachary and Eli were spotted scanning the yellow pages. They checked out the phone books for the longest time before they realized that anyone had seen them. It was too funny!

We had a great time at the ballgame. Zachary has taken such an interest in baseball this last year that having a baseball party was really a "no brainer." He loved having all of his friends and family in one place. Every one of the kids left the ballgame all sugared up, but every one of them slept really good when they got home as well. What a fun night!
