We had so much fun getting ready for Colin's 4th birthday!
Since his birthday was on Friday, we made cupcakes to share with all of his friends at Ms. Robin's house on Thursday. The kids were really helpful (okay, so not THAT helpful) with mixing the cupcake batter and adding food coloring to the icing. They both just loved holding the mixer for me while we were getting the batter ready.

The best part of baking....licking the beaters!
Colin being silly with his blue cupcakes!
Friday morning, Brian had an early morning work meeting, which meant he wasn't going to be around to sing Colin happy birthday. We called Daddy and did a "through the phone" birthday complete with 4 mini-donuts!

We went to Chuck E Cheese on Friday afternoon to spend a few hours with family.
That's really about all we care to spend there, plus, it starts getting pretty busy around 6 pm, so we usually try to leave around then.
Maggie could've spent all afternoon on this horse.
Colin zipped from game to game, he was hard to catch up with for a picture...
We danced and got lots of tickets from Chuck E Cheese.
Colin even got a picture with him!
More time on the horse
Then, after the kids were in bed, my mom and I got to work on making the "superhero" shirts for the kids on Sunday. It was really easy, just made some stencils out of freezer paper and dabbed on some white fabric paint. There were 9 kids coming, so by the 9th one, I was ready to be done! :)

Meemaw took us all out for dinner on Saturday to celebrate Colin's birthday (yes, another celebration!)
I love this picture of the 4 of them...
Colin even got a HUGE bowl of cake and ice cream for his birthday.
We were hoping they would sing to him, but they didn't do that at this particular restaurant.
It was still an awesome night.
More to come...Colin's Superhero party!
