Jackson's sports party!

Jackson loves all sports and consistently tells us that he is going to play them ALL "when he gets older".  So, what better theme for his 3rd birthday party than a sports party?!!
We decided to have the party at home and set up a variety of sports-related activities for the kids.  We set up soccer goals, a tether ball set, and even had a game with balloons and pool noodles that didn't go exactly as planned...but the kids had a blast anyway.  Our neighbors just happened to have a small bounce house which they allowed us to borrow for the occasion.  We finished off the fun with a soccer ball pinata!  The weather was perfect to be outdoors, and Jackson loved having his family and friends over to celebrate!

Enjoy some pictures of the day:

bounce house fun
this is not fun & games, people :)
what was to be a "try to get the balloon into the basket" game, turned into "pop as many balloons as you can" game.  it lasted all of 3 seconds.  they sure had fun though! :)
the gang's (almost) all here!
pinata time!  I planned poorly and didn't put as many layers on it this year.  unfortunately, all of the kids did not get a turn before it broke :(
candy time!
sweet cousins
cake time!

"Happy birthday to you!"
presents!
an afternoon at our house is not complete without a trip to feed the neighbors' sheep!
