Birthday Party!

The day of the big birthday party has arrived!!! And just because our boys love to start their days early, Conner managed to pull out a loose tooth around 3:00 this morning! (He did go back to bed!)

















The boys are ready for the party to start and their guests to arrive! They talked to a woman at our resort in Florida about how it was their birthday in July and they managed to talk her into giving them a Birthday pin from Disney to wear today, so we dug those out this morning! When everyone started arriving, the kids all had some time to play while we got lunch going! Hand battered chicken fingers, shrimp poppers, macaroni and cheese, barbeque meatballs, Mickey fruit, Mickey cheese, Mickey pretzel bites, and Mickey cookies were on the menu! The boys couldn't wait to show everyone our pictures from Disney World! During lunch, ironically, Ben came running in with a tooth in his hand! He had lost a tooth while he was eating his lunch! The Tooth Fairy will have to collect two teeth tonight from the Hedlund household!



















After lunch, it was time for presents! First we had to watch the 10th birthday movie! Then, it was time for presents...


























Time for cake and ice cream! Conner wanted white cake with one Disney picture and Ben wanted chocolate cake with another picture from Disney on it!




















After Ben and Conner each blew out their ten candles and ate their cake, it was time to take the party to the backyard for some swimming and water balloons!






















Ben and Conner had a wonderful 10th birthday party! Thank you to everyone for coming! I still can't believe our boys are 10 years old!!!
