Happy Birthday Jace!

Jace Turned 6 on Wednesday April 9th! I think I am still in SHOCK! He was my baby for so long before Jenesee came along. He is growing incredibly fast! It makes me really sad. We anticipated Kindergarten with him, and now it's about over. (Not that I am sad or anything -- the schedule really stinks with our work schedules.) He is going to be in first grade! The transition that kids make from Start of kindergarten to start of first grade just takes me back! The amount of information they learn, the new personality traits that develop, the friendships that are made! I just love to watch it, but at the same time, the babyness starts to slip away!! For those of you that know our little Jace, he is an incredible kid! A majority of his friends consist of girls. He is very outgoing and loves loves loves Friends.. So this year we decided to let him have a friend party. Ok.. Sure.. well Jace has so many friends at school and in the circle, that the list just kept growing. So, the birthday party ended up with 21 kids (that included our 4!) Yes, call us crazy.. That is definetely what we felt like. My parents were so sweet and came to help out. I am sure after being there a little while, they were probably asking themselves what they had gotten themselves into. Jace really wanted to have a Transformer birthday party. However, he has so many friends that are girls that he knew they wouldn't come to a "boy" party. So he decided on Sponge Bob, because boys and girls both like that! Unfortunately I had to work on Wednesday, so my Mom was kind enough to make the cake and cupcakes. I was so Thankful! Thanks again MOM.
This is a picture of some of the kids watching Jace open gifts. There were so many KIDS! It was really fun for him!
Janson and Reece were hanging out "away" from all the kindergarteners.. lol..
Jason was trying everything in his power to keep these kids entertained! He is soooo good with young kids. The kids loved him. He was playing all kinds of fun stuff with them. (He happened to thank me a 100 times for planning games.. oops.. it slipped my mind). The party was only 1 hour and 15 minutes... Jace and Caitlee... They are the best of friends! THey are only a couple months apart!
Later that Night we had a family party with some friends and grandparents. Jace is cheesing it! He was such a Happy Birthday BOY!
