Welcome to the COBBweb!!!: Evan's 8th Birthday

Well, I know it's been a week or so. . . but here are the pictures for Evan's birthday week!!!

For his school class we made planet cake pops. It was a science themed birthday week!

Then, he came home and got to open presents!

I was able to find these great video recording spy glasses on clearance (YEAH!!) and Evan LOVED them!! He likes to take hidden video of people. . . I've learned from first hand experience to be careful if he has those glasses on!

He made out pretty good on his actual birthday. Can you see Addison behind the balloon kit? She had to help open the presents.

Since I made his cake later on in the week for his party, he chose to have banana splits for his Birthday desert. They were pretty good. Love banana splits with brownies and strawberries!!!

Grandma and Grandpa Dance came into town on Thursday. On Friday they took Evan and Brayden out on the town shopping and lunch. They had a lot of fun! I got to finish my cake and party prepping with less kids in the house, so it was nice.

Friday night was his party. Here he is in his wonderful "lab" coat and glasses.

Brayden sporting the same style.

Addison doing one of the best jobs showing us how cute this outfit really could be!!! :)

Here is the party area.

Here are the party goers in the party area painting their party volcano's!!

Didn't they do such a great job!!

Addison had fun painting hers.

Brayden showing his off.

Evan showing us his.

Andrew eating. He didn't want a lab coat, or to paint a volcano, he was just hungry and wanted dinner! He ate really well that night! He was a pure cutie pie!!!

After dinner we pulled out the volcano cake. It doesn't look 100% cool, but hopefully the video will show you that it's actually made for action, not beauty!!

Here is the video of the volcano "exploding". We had some technical issues, but overall it was pretty fun!

Here is Evan opening gifts at his party. Brayden was funny during this part as he kept saying "cool" and "that's awesome" the whole time. Thanks for all the gifts everyone. He loves them all!

This was the last fun for the day. . . they got to explode their volcano's! Just a little bit of vinegar and baking soda and bubble over they all did. The kids had fun doing it.

I had them all go out on the lawn. Good for the table, not so good for those spots of lawn. I have dots of brown all over my lawn!!!

Andrew again, eating. He was eating from his treat box, and filling it up with grass at the same time. They are rocket ships, way cool. Didn't actually take a better picture of them!

Addison is now sporting the medals that were handed out once the volcano's all "exploded".

Over all it was a great party. I somehow failed to include a picture of Josh doing his science experiments for the kids. They got to see his frozen flowers, and elephant toothpaste, and all other sorts of fun things. We got to hang out with friends and have all sorts of fun.

The next morning, Saturday, was Evan's baptism. Here he is with his Grandpa, Evan. Don't they both look great in their suits? So handsome! Evan got his suit for his birthday!
